5th graders rocked the 1st in-district coding competition 🌟 Debugging Spheros, coding from videos, MakeCode Arcade, & tackling mBots (new to them!). Amazing teamwork & perseverance. Proud of these young innovators!

This is fantastic!! I would love to know more.

Adding font files into #Tinkercad & learning to make hinges is producing some amazing keychains! Already planning new projects for the next Makers Club cohort for Jan 😊

High School Learning with Apple: The Book After working together to collect lessons using a variety of tools in each department of a high school, we wrote a book to share those 30 lessons with you. Each lesson features the use of Apple techno...

I am loving these 30 High School Learning Activities! Great for any teacher using Apple products, they have iPad and Mac activities across a variety of subject areas. #EDUsky #AppleEDUsky #AppleEducationCommunity

This looks amazing!

A way to enhance a 3D printing project is by adding in packaging. Get students creating with Canva to make amazing packaging and promotional materials.

Thank you Shannon Osheroff for organizing everything!

#EDUsky & #AppleEDUsky : Let's connect.

A group of teachers that I worked with recently are starting a #PBL unit soon about animal hybrids & their ecosystems. You know I had to make an example! I created the graphic, added sound effects, & voice - ALL in #AdobeExpress! Want to learn more? Reach out! #AdobeEduCreative #AdobeForEdu #EduSky

Please add me to the group. Thanks

Mathew Pullen Hi, I am Mat and I have been using iPad in my teaching since the day it was released. It's not that I am a geek (okay, maybe just a bit) but I have seen for years how the power of technology can unl...

A library of videos created to support staff in developing new ideas or just getting to grips with the basics of using an iPad in education. They are not polished productions just simple walkthroughs

A screenshot showing how to add a picture-in-picture effect to a video in Canva. The steps are numbered and include: adding a photo or video, selecting the video, clicking the 'More' button, clicking 'Show timing,' and dragging the trim handles to adjust the timing of the picture-in-picture effect.

Set up a picture in picture effect in a Canva video project. You can layer a smaller video or image over the main one, which works great for tutorials, reactions, or presentations. Simple and effective! #EduSky #EdTech #Canva

Our Ts encouraged to use, w/Ss, a continuum of AI use (similar to many seen online). I wanted to change it to be more action-based, instead of just being poster on wall. Ts can assign it for any activity to keep AI in front of us all the time... great tool for S-T conferencing.

Deck Blue - deck.blue - is a must have to get the most out of Bluesky (especially if you used TweetDeck in the past). Super easy to create columns for custom feeds.
