Digital Learning Today - September 5, 2022

What a great first week back at school! It was pretty awesome seeing our students back in the building. We had, of course, a few young students who wouldn't let go of their parents on the first day, which made me think back to the first day of school for my triplets but all and all, the school year has started and I'm excited for a great year ahead.

One of the topics that we will be focusing on this year is Digital Citizenship and Digital Identity. This is not only a hot topic nationally but one that we have started discussing with our kids at home. This week on the "Ask the Tech Coach" podcast, we had Jaime Donally and Dr. Marialice Curran on to discuss this important topic. I hope you have a chance to check out this episode today !?
