What I'm Learning: There is a movement toward "Connected Courses" in Higher Ed

I believe deeply in the power of connected learning, and I am so grateful to those who are pursuing it in all forms of education. I really like the structure of “Connected Courses” and the online community that has sprung up around it. Do you think we need something similar for K-12?

About | Connected Courses

Connected Courses is a collaborative network of faculty in higher education developing online, open courses that embody the principles of connected learning and the values of the open web. Our goal is to build an inclusive and expansive network of teachers, students, and educational offerings that makes high quality, meaningful, and socially connected learning available to everyone.

How do we support Future-Ready Teaching? By making Future-Proof Teachers.

What I'm Learning: You can now Mirror your Chromebook to an Apple TV with AirParrot

While this may not be a game changer for some. For those who heavily invested in Apple TVs and are now investing a lot in Chromebooks, this is huge! While it isn’t free, I think it could be important to think about strategically purchasing licenses for classrooms.

AirParrot – Chrome Web Store

AirParrot adds screen mirroring to any Chrome OS device. Wirelessly connect a Chromebook to a receiver for easy mirroring and streaming. AirParrot displays your entire screen, not just a tab or portion of it.
