We can at least HOPE that the world's children have teachers who are patient enough to share -- and be allowed to share -- clear and fact-based historical knowledge.
Our redesign for https://topology.pi-base.org finally launched! If you might be teaching #topology someday, I'd love to chat about ways to use it in your #classroom. And we're always looking for students and faculty who want to contribute to its content...

I've posted critically of iPads lately, but wanted to highlight a killer use case.
This year I set up our Apple TV in my wife's #classroom and she's using her iPad for almost EVERYTHING that is on screen. Goodnotes for rapid drawing (and as document cam by just snapping a pic), Powerpoint for presentations with real time annotation, and playing youtube with full sound output to the same system that amplifies her voice (I'm splitting out the audio to do this)

@notroot@edutooters not exactly, but #Pedagogy has been evolving apace while many #Teachers were themselves educated in an outdated version of pedagogy (ie. they teach how they've been taught to teach).

Le alternative a Google #Classroom. Inchiesta sul Progetto #Fuss avviato fin dal 2005 dalla Provincia Autonoma di Bolzano. Parla Graffio, collaboratore del centro #CIRCE.: "rischia di venire meno quindi la relazione tra i compagni di classe e tra gli insegnanti"
This is a beautiful video (mostly an ad, but that's ok) highlighting the possibilities in working with #digital tools in the #classroom. The adaptability and inclusiveness is unrivalled by tools like these!
