1-Minute Read. Collaborative Learning. 16 Variations on Think-Pair-Share to Keep Students Engaged. By Todd Finley. Illustration of students participating in various think-pair-share activities.

Think-Pair-Share has been a classroom mainstay since the 1980s. It helps increase participation, reinforce key concepts, and aid in recall, professor of English education @toddfinley.bsky.social writes.

But even the strongest learning strategies can get boring if they’re overused.

Over the past few years, I’ve become more and more passionate about considering the student experience, especially with #edtech. Check out my article about how Wearing the ‘Student Hat’ can impact the classroom.

It’s easy to become overwhelmed w all the options. But continue to encourage all the creative options that iPads provide. Mark up on photos or screenshots, Pages, Keynote are all great tools. The Everyone Can Create r great resources from Apple too.

I would create a collection of short student tutorials to walk Ss through assignment submissions & completion. We r Microsoft too so OneNote is our preferred app for annotations. Pick 1-2 apps and have Ts practice being the “student” so they r familiar w the student iPad experience.

At the beginning of the year we do a set-up session with all new staff and then follow up with individual coaching to get basics in place. Settings, Apple Classroom, digital whiteboards, screen mirroring etc. Is this move for teachers & students? Our Ts have a MacBook & iPad but Ss only iPad.

🤖 Claude just launched "extended thinking" in Claude Code! Now, you can ask it to "think" or "think harder," and it’ll show its thought process—powered by Claude 3.7 Sonnet.

I can definitely help you. I’m in a K-12 iPad district. I’m at the high school.

Loving these ideas for using AI Image Generators in the English classroom. Check out my newest AI image generation tutorial that goes along with it. youtu.be/MiCg8w7srhY #edtech #edtechcoach #EnglishTeacher #AIinEducation
