Hi Gregg,
Your blog post is helpful in realizing how the eKWIP Community is leading the way in 21st Century Education.
Your description of the T2M, or triggering teachable moments, goes into the logistics of how a teacher can use the tools on the site. It is easy to understand.
I especially liked your description of how you took “The Marshmallow Challenge, Building Collaborative Teams” and made that Standards aligned. I believe using this tool, students are going to look at education in a different light. They will think, analyze and come to a conclusion that goes beyond text book learning. I can’t wait for your next blog entry.
SB.
Thank you for your kind words of encouragement! Have a great day.
