WHY
1. Begin through the antiracist lens of education and our responsibility as educators to allow every student to show mastery of learning, regardless of background and how to embrace technology as an equalizer (10 min.)
HOW - Each part will have a short "I do" "You do" and depending on numbers, set, etc, is fluid depending on the learners and the space. Here is a rough outline but, as any lesson, may be adapted as necessary. (approximate timing)
Using social media to inspire classroom assessment.
2. Examine/study mentor texts online using TikTok, Twitter, Instagram, including the prevalence of memes and GIFs (10)
3. Discuss the different guidelines for each platform (15)
4. Crete assignment with classroom content (target/rubric/outcome) and chosen mentor text to create a post. This is purposefully open to allow teachers to pick a platform they want, allowing for choice and mirroring what should be done in the classroom (15)

Nichole Carter was middle school classroom teacher for 12 years, teaching both honors and regular ELA. She used the flipped classroom model for four years in a row, in a blended learning environment in a 1:1 iPad school. Author or Sketchnoting in the Classroom, published in June 2019 by ISTE is available on iste.org now. No stranger to technology integration, she is now a K-12 Literacy and Digital Curriculum TOSA for the Beaverton School District, a national public speaker, and author.
Teaching and living in Beaverton, OR, Rebecca has dedicated the last 14 years to education, and is currently teaching Language Arts at Sunset High School. She is passionate about using technology, not only because it can be engaging, but because it is a multifaceted tool for equity in the classroom, and she hopes to share that vision with other educators. At home, Rebecca is a wife and mom of three girls who likes to cook, read, and practice yoga. And although she's now an Oregonian, at heart, she'll always be a Chicago girl #dabears #FlytheW #gohawks.
