- 6. ‘global’ in this sense does not mean ‘multi- lingual’. Global graduates, are those who 'can take a global perspective' and 'can work in multi- disciplinary, multi-cultural and multi-locational teams'. To succeed in a global context we need to seek to develop generations of young people who are culturally agile and aware of the wider world. ~ Sonja Stockton, director of talent at PricewaterhouseCoopers

We also created this page to inform the public about human trafficking and how fast it is expanding in Nebraska. If any of you find any information on human trafficking feel free to tag us and post on our wall! Thanks so much!
- 18. Kelli Mashino – West Boyd School – Spencer, NE https://advocatingforagtoday .wordpress.com/?blogsub=c onfirming#subscribe-blog I use a variety of social media outlets to advoate for agriculture! My primary platforms are Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, Snapchat, and WordPress. I got more involved with advocating on social media by becoming a team member of the Nebraska Ag Crew with Nebraska Farm Bureau this year. We post actively throughout the year with the common hashtag of #neagcrew. As far as blogging goes, I love WordPress! It's super easy to join and connect with. I have it linked to my Instagram and my Twitter so that anyone who goes to my pages can click on the link to read my agriculture blogs as well! I'm also starting to do more with videos as well. When I do this, I create a video on my phone using iMovie and then post it to my YouTube channel. Then, I link it to Facebook, Twitter, etc.

- How many of you have a PLN? How about an online one? What does that look like? As teachers/educators we focus on our professional network but have we thought about building our student's networks? I believe we need to change the way we teach and our expectations of our students. I full heartedly believe our students need global experience!!! You no longer just need to think outside the box you need to think "around the world"!
- Educators are connecting on Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, blogs, Google Hangouts and more, as they develop personal learning networks as a tool for professional growth. Personal Learning Networks (PLNs) are those connections individual learners make to suit their specific perceived learning needs. Educators know that in today’s world, value is found in more than just what you know; who you know and how to make the most of those connections and information is even more important. This holds true for youth as well. If we want young people to achieve success in the world today, we must step up and support students as they build their own 21st century rolodex, the PLN.
- If we only educate our children in the four walls of our classroom they will come out uneducated!
- AQUESTT - positive partnerships and ed opportunities/access
- Susan RoAne is an American author and speaker. She has written several business networking self-help books including How to Work a Room. http://etale.org/main/2013/11/22/helping-students-develop-personal-learning-networks/
- Can they direct them to a blog, or instagram account that is a history of their learning?
- They need to know the why, share your PLN. There needs to be a purpose. Create activities that allow them to use their network. Allow them time to expand and grow this network.
- Hello! At PHS, my journalism staff uses Twitter. We have a staff account that they can access through one laptop in my room (the student laptops have filters that block social media sites). Each day, they tweet school news or yearbook photography, etc. after having their tweets proofread. Prior to starting this practice, we do a lesson on the role of social media in modern journalism (why it's important, how it's used by professional journalists, how we can apply it to our purposes, what professional SM usage looks like). Then at the end of each week, part of their weekly reflection deals with their Twitter activity. They're to reflect on the purpose and quality of their tweets.
- Kathy Steinkamp - I don't have any examples, but I sometimes use Twitter for test reviews. My AP US History students are in study groups that meet outside of school. I have used Twitter a few times to help them review on-line. I will Tweet out a post to see who is listening. I tell them to prepare to review. Those who see it tell everyone in their study group. Then, I begin to post questions (similar to those on the test). The first person with the correct answer gets an extra credit point on the test. It's easy to track because I can look at my tweets and responses and see who answered correctly first. I simply tally right from the Twitter feed when I add it to their tests. Another way I use it with the same students is to retweet from history sources I follow. As we are studying a topic, I retweet from "History in Pictures" or other sources. Anything I retweet is fair game for further study. We call that study "extended study." It's student choice, and it adds points to their grade. Student work 1 + PS Preston Sunderman <psunderman@lhne.org> | Today, 9:52 AM I currently don’t have any students engaging in that kind of learning, but I know that it’s on my list of curriculum changes to add in the next year or so. Sorry I can’t be of help now!

I just want to show that an audience was more than fellow students. Molly Aschoff maschoff@esu8.org Digital Learning Coordinator ESU #8 PO Box 89 Neligh, NE 68756 (402) SH Stephanie Hamilton Today, 9:45 AM I wouldn't call it collaboration as much as others in classes commenting on things we have posted and vice versa. I'd like to explore the collaboration component more in the future. I do belong to a Facebook group of those teachers I am connected with. Thinking JW Jill Wagner <jwagner@plainviewschools.org> Today, 9:44 AM The only thing that we have really done was Blippar projects. They are nothing fancy, but glad it got done at all. The group is a challenging group. ☺ We have not done much with Google, but that would be the only other thing. Jill Wagner Technology Integration KF Karla Faehnrich <karlafaehnrich@neunified1.org> Today, 9:43 AM I did this with 8th graders. They pretty much all had their own cell phones (one student used his mother's that worked in the school and another student used the camera on his Chromebook to take selfies with the objects). If they didn't have a snapchat account MA Molly Aschoff Today, 9:42 AM Thanks Tami....I will check it out!

My FB page is: Newman Grove 7-12th grade ART. Sent from my iPhone SH Stephanie Hamilton Today, 9:38 AM We use Seesaw a great deal at Elkhorn Valley, particularly in third grade. We have posted some of our projects to the blog, where we have connected with other classrooms around the globe. I'd be happy to share with you, if you 'd like some examples. Not sure KS Kathy Steinkamp <kathisteinkamp@npsne.org> Reply all| Today, 9:35 AM Molly Aschoff By the way ... I only use Twitter for my students. I do not have a personal Twitter account. I think that's important. We can't be on social media with them otherwise. If I determine that information is coming from some source and it is inappropriate, I stop following that source. Also, our team of drama directors has determined that we will not allow profane or inflammatory language. If a student tweets such language (or even retweets it), we notify them by DM that they need to remove it. We expect them to represent us well if they want to be in our activities.

- The blog posts about building a snowman are from a classroom in Texas. Their teacher told me that they rarely get snow. My students responded. I taught them to indicate they were in Nebraska. We have connected with classes in US, the U.K., Australia, etc. fun to see what others are learning.

- I have a group of enrichment students who are using a blog site to publish writing. There aren't a lot of parameters, just a way to encourage writing for pleasure. Students can work independently or cooperatively on any form of writing that interests them and they submit their finished product to me. I then post to norfolkjuniorhigh.edublogs.org.
