    There's nothing we love more at Nearpod and Renaissance Learning than connecting face-to-face with incredible educators and admins. 💙 At GAETC in November, we had the chance to showcase how Nearpod’s tools transform the student experience - and introduce so many educators to the power of Nearpod and Renaissance working together. A huge thank you to everyone who stopped by and to our Nearpod and Renaissance experts, Philip J. Wagener and Sue Reukauf. We can’t wait to see more of you in 2025! Up next: FETC 👀 #edtech

    Truly the power of student voice in action 💜 When students feel empowered to express themselves - like this first-time performer at Ellerslie School in Barbados - they discover confidence and joy that can shape their entire learning journey. We're so proud to have Dr. Mervin Jenkins on our team to help us show the impact Flocabulary and the magic hip-hop can have in classrooms worldwide!

    What a wonderful moment sharing the Flocabulary platform and my story with the students at Ellerslie School in St. Michaels, Barbados! Afterwards, one student stood before his peers and performed on the spot! He finished and whispered to me that that was his first time doing something like that in front of his peers. That’s the power of student voice in action! #barbados #ellerslie #studentvoice #hiphopeducation #nearpod #flocabulary #worldwide

    How do you encourage student voice and creativity in your school? 🎤 The Flocabulary Student Voice Rap Contest invites students to research a historical figure who inspires them and turn that learning into a creative rap. It’s a fresh way to blend history, research skills, and music - ideal for any subject and grade! Two winners will have their lyrics transformed into an official Flocabulary lesson! ✨ This contest goes beyond history - it's about uplifting students to use their voices in a way that's uniquely theirs.

    🧑🏽💻 It's #DigitalCitizenshipWeek 🧑🏽💻 It's hard to believe that my journey from the music classroom to the world of EdTech started 10 years ago. It was a shift that has shaped my career and opened doors for my students. Digital citizenship is about more than just understanding technology—it’s about fostering critical thinking, empathy, and ethical decision-making in an increasingly connected and confusing world. In my fist year as a tech teacher, I was so grateful for free resources that organizations like Common Sense Media and Code.org provided. I relied heavily on this content as I was learning the ropes and what it meant to truly develop digital citizens. The students in this video are now in their 20's. 🤯 I know that engaging in these lessons and activities in middle school helped shape the digital citizens they have become. Ten years later, I'm continuing this same work at Nearpod. I'm so excited we partner with Common Sense Media to make their high quality digital citizenship lessons active, engaging, and accessible. Sharing a few of my favorite FREE Digital Citizenship resources below! 📝 Curated list of free Nearpod lessons www.nearpod.com/t/F147325 💻 Code.org Digital Citizenship Lesson https://lnkd.in/gcR75Si7 🤳🏻 How to be a Good Digital Citizen from Flocabulary https://lnkd.in/gruWHXgK 👨👨👦👦 Common Sense Media Family Engagement Toolkit https://lnkd.in/g63Ywc26 #DigitalCitizenshipWeek #EdTech #TechInEducation #DigitalLiteracy #STEM
