    I really love how your decision to choose this nation is so closely interconnected with your personal work at Camp Chief Hector, as well as your definition of historical recounting. I can tell that this video came from the heart and truly represents the kind of work you want to do. I do find your statement on oral recalls very interesting, and wonder how or if views of oral records will change or remain stationary over time.

  A limited experience with AI applications When I worked at TELUS, they were beginning to introduce AI Chat, which was intended to increase customer self-service and provide support to customer care representatives (overall reduction of cost and human resources). The program was really painful. It was intended to learn as it was used, but as I only worked with it at its earliest point in development, it was more nuisance than help.  Educational technology being used in my 3rd year practicum placement is: Smart Board  Smart Document Cam Polaroid Camera Brail Typewriter  Assistive Hearing Device  Laptop A “burning” question I have about using digital technologies in K to 9 education: What can a teacher who works in a modest to low-income school do to incorporate more technology in the classroom without incurring personal costs? I have witnessed a stark difference between the private and public systems and the availability of technology in their environment. An en...

My Twitter Account  Above is my brand new Twitter account. This account will be used to post useful information intended primarily to support the families of elementary students. Posts will include family well-being and support programs, open-access local family-friendly events, and truly fun online educational resources to encourage learning at home too.  Families, and students too, will be invited to reach out to me via private message with suggestions for posts, or requests for help   finding specific support. Students will be encouraged to submit works of art, photo-documented experiments, and stories of doing good in the community.  With so many students learning from home or finding themselves in a new country with few connections to resources my feed will serve the need for connection. It can be easier to ask for support when it is coming through a judgment-free platform.

Exploring the Planets within our solar system Lesson Plan By: Kira Berry and Jessica Leblond Check out our lesson plan here:  Lesson Plan   The Application https://spaceplace.nasa.gov/menu/solar-system/   The Video  https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mQrlgH97v94 Reflecting on Facilitation of the App Lesson Facilitating the lesson with peers, and in such a short amount of time was limiting. I find it hard to be as serious with peers as I would need it to be for the practice to be of any real benefit. I genuinely do not find the process beneficial to my learning and would much prefer to have spent the time exploring the applications brought forward more in depth.  The ability to have them create the planets themselves based on the research they had done was not possible so we made due with print outs of the planets, took some of the fun out of it. The video selected went over really well, and the consolidation activity of having the students sort and hang the planets...
