1 ) Blogging Prompts for Teacher Candidates
- This collaborative Google Doc project features hundreds of writing
prompts for teacher candidates (and any person in the education
field).
- Topics include issues related to ethical use of technology, pedagogy,
ed tech & cognition, personal tech habits, tech tools, issues with
access, future of education and more!
- I will definitely be using the ideas in this document in the future!

- If you haven't already subscribed to the HipHughes YouTube Channel
you should go do so right now! Keith Hughes, a YouTube Next EDU Guru,
has created hundreds of videos (approximately 30 minutes or less) to
teach about World History, US History, Politics and more!
- Keith seems like an awesome teacher and his videos are very engaging!
He uses a lot of different music, backgrounds and eye-catching intro clips
to catch your attention quickly. I really like that Keith's explanations really
seem like he is talking to a class, not a robotic scripted speech like some
edu-videos I've watched.
- I like that he has created playlists so that videos are easily searchable by
topic!

Happy Monday everyone!
Why, I think these resources are fantastic! Especially the HipHughes site, of course being him, I am preferential to myself. Be sure to check out the description in my newer vids for links to tons of other edu peeps on YouTube. The best thing about YT is there a teacher for ecery type of learner in every type of class.
