I can’t believe we are saying goodbye to another decade.
To all of my readers, thank you for helping me learn and grow as an educator! I learn so much from all of you!
Shake Up Learning turned five in 2019, and now we are headed into our sixth year. I have plans to make 2020 the best year yet!
Reflection is a critical part of the learning process for teachers and students, so I like to take a look back.
I like to take a deeper look at what blog posts and podcast episodes were the most popular, and generated the most comments and traffic.
The goal of this blog has always been to provide teachers with educational technology resources, tips, and tricks, and help teachers find ways to integrate technology meaningfully in the classroom.
This list helps me decide what content to create and how to best help teachers in 2020.
