For many of you teachers out there, your curriculum, assessments, and pacing are already mapped out for you over the course of the year. By following the map, you’re able to meet all the standards and cover all the required material by the end of the school year. But then you’re told you need to integrate technology into your curriculum and are expected to create your own road map to make it work.
Maybe you have devices […]
It’s easy to create technology rich lessons in Ednexio. There’s no need to reinvent the wheel – but you may need to “pump it up.” Simply take a lesson you love that may have little or no technology integrated into it and add websites and multimedia to more fully engage your students.

How do you get started? There are plenty […]

The Four Elements of 21st Century Learning The Framework for 21st Century Learning consists of […] Give It a Try! Lino Sticky NotesI’m always looking for ways to integrate tech into the classroom and using online Lino Sticky Notes can be just as fun and easy as using real sticky notes (maybe even more so). You basically have a blank bulletin board, where you can pose a question or post an assignment; upload pictures, videos, and files; and create a group and share the link to the board with your students. They follow the link and are […] Teachers Say Tech Integration is EmpoweringFrom its inception, Ednexio has been relying on a group of expert teachers and their students to give us feedback on our learning platform. After six months of using Ednexio with their students, we asked them to describe – in one word – what integrating technology has been like for them so far. From empowering to relevant, the overall process and outcome of tech integration appears to be very positive for both the teachers and […] What the Heck? From Teacher to Co-Founder of EdnexioWhat the heck was I thinking? I had a great job as a teacher and Technology Lead at a small, local elementary school five minutes from my house.
