  1. RT @danpilone: Don't aplgze for slides. If you're about to say "I know you can't absorb this" or "Sorry this slide is so busy" then fix it.
  2. RT @web20classroom: RT @thart74: Google classroom activities. http://is.gd/5qqlw
  3. Exploring how to make online learning more interactive: identify where the learner can take the next step and ask participants to input
  4. It's more difficult to be interactive when teaching online than in person, but so important for learning. Find ways to engage the learners.
  5. Excited to see how augmented reality will be used in education. Great opportunities here, I think. http://bit.ly/3liABD
