Chat reads from top to bottom
| MyTakeOnIt | @rmbyrne Do you have resources on http://t.co/WSHweOrc that would fit tonight’s #BYOTchat: “Learning Tools that Compliment BYOD/BYOT” |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | Welcome to our third #BYOTchat! Tonight “What learning tools are you using that compliment and sustain a BYOT program?” #byotchat |
| hugghinss | Hello @SteveHayes_RB60 and everyone. Looking forward to sharing #BYOTCHAT |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @Edu_Thompson Hi Jill! #byotchat |
| nathan_stevens | the easiest type of site to have multiple items is audience response #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @SteveHayes_RB60 Good evening everyone! #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @SteveHayes_RB60 Yea! Love learning with everyone #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | Happy Anniversary to Jerey Angoff @MyTakeOnIt and his wife! You’re here with us! What a wife you have!!! #byotchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @nathan_stevens Socrative works really well for classroom polling and is fairly device neutral #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | Does Socrative cost anything? #byotchat |
| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt really like socrative #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @SteveHayes_RB60 Thank you! Yep, @kangoff is pretty special! #BYOTchat |
| hugghinss | @MyTakeOnIt @nathan_stevens Socrative is great, @polleverywhere is good a well #BYOTCHAT |
| MyTakeOnIt | @SteveHayes_RB60 No, Socrative’s web site, apps, and service are free. #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @hugghinss @nathan_stevens I used to recommend @PollEverywhere until @dancallahan & @ldelia showed me Socrative. It’s so easy! #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @nathan_stevens I don’t know group board—is it also a class polling system? #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | i don’t know how many of you have tried groupboard, but it is going byot #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt @hugghinss @polleverywhere @dancallahan @ldelia we were using eclicker before socrative #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | With Socrative, is there any limits to the # of students responding? #byotchat |
| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt not a polling app, collaborative whiteboard software #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | http://t.co/fvJo2mqy I like using this site #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | “@nathan_stevens: @MyTakeOnIt not a polling app, collaborative whiteboard software #BYOTchat†Good to know! Thanks! |
| Edu_Thompson | http://t.co/GD1redyH Here is another site that I like using as well for #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt currently beta testing the android app, already for ios and laptop #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @Edu_Thompson “new pad” who else see this? #byotchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | “@Edu_Thompson: http://t.co/N4FkMtOj Here is another site that I like using as well for #BYOTchat†Oh right! I forgot about that. Good call! |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @MyTakeOnIt Today’s meet – That’s a great one for meeting and twitter feeds – I hadn’t thought about classroom, but it would work #byotchat |
| hugghinss | My students & I use The Hootsuite Twitter app for a variety of things. Students can share work, ask ?s, comment etc #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @Edu_Thompson today’s meet is good, except if someone outside finds the heading for your class, outsiders can get in #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | What are your feelings about Google Docs on BYOT? I feel that GDocs & BYOD have a love/hate relationship! Any BYOalternatives? #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @hugghinss are all your students on Twitter? #byotchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @nathan_stevens True, I like that you can put a timer on how long you will have it open so I can close it after class if I want. #byotchat |
| SrtaLisa | I personally get frustrated with GoogleDocs on my device, but kids are resilient and not as phased #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @SrtaLisa Hi Lisa – Glad you’ve joined us! #byotchat |
| riedyj | How to have students use Twitter in school? |
| dschoening | @MyTakeOnIt @nathan_stevens I have just started investigating Socrative. Do you guys like its functionality in the classroom? #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @hugghinss:good call—I was just about to suggest Twitter! I’ve been getting more students into it (shout out to @MsJesscka!) #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @dschoening @riedyj Welcome to #BYOTchat #byotchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @dschoening @nathan_stevens I find Socrative limited, but EASY to learn & use for Teacher & Students. Quick & easy is important. #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @cybraryman1 Thanks! #byotchat |
| riedyj | Anyone using Schoology or Edmodo? |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @SrtaLisa Google docs isn’t my first choice, but it works with students #byotchat |
| Mike_Penta | Great idea for districts with BYOT: The Twitter Experiment – Twitter in the Classroom: http://t.co/HiYeRg2X #BYOTchat #BYOTchat |
| hugghinss | @MyTakeOnIt Hootsuite seems to be the preferred app for my students #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @nathan_stevens Our schools district is also blocked from google docs #byotchat |

| SteveHayes_RB60 | @Edu_Thompson Blocked from Google Docs?? I’ve never heard of that! #byotchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @SrtaLisa I’ve used Edmo (not the school) and students do love it! #byotchat |
| SrtaLisa | Edmodo words great on mobile devices (and there is a free App), netbooks, etc #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @hugghinss On my computer I alternate between TweetDeck and Twitter app #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @cmt1 Welcome Carol! #byotchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @SteveHayes_RB60 I also teach in elem school #byotchat |
| hugghinss | @SteveHayes_RB60 Yes, they are all on Twitter, but We interact on another username I don’t publicize #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @hugghinss I use HootSuite on my iPad when I’m participating in more than 1 convo at a time. Otherwise I use basic Twitter app #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @Mike_Penta Mike – do you use Twitter with your students? #byotchat |
| SrtaLisa | our school uses Edmodo #BYOTchat the students love it |
| hugghinss | @MyTakeOnIt They like the interface on their phones & they track our class hash tags #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | “@Edu_Thompson: @nathan_stevens Our schools district is also blocked from google docs #byotchat†WHAT?!? Blocked from Google Docs?!? |
| cybraryman1 | My Edmodo page: http://t.co/aIZgDLRh Very popular with many teachers #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @hugghinss Does every teacher have a class twitter account? – So cool #byotchat |
| SrtaLisa | Weebly has a better interface than Wikispaces on a mobile device #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @hugghinss @MyTakeOnIt That is really neat concept #byotchat |
| Mike_Penta | @SteveHayes_RB60 I’m not a teacher. Parent co-chair on committee working to implement BYOT in our school district. #BYOTchat |
| riedyj | I am debating switching over to Schoology from Edmodo. Schoology has a free service like Edmodo but does more. |
| BYOTNetwork | I’ve seen Wikispaces work well with BYOT #BYOTchat |
| mluhtala | We use Twitter for current events research #BYOTchat |
| hugghinss | My students also use The BlogPress app for blogging from iOS devices #BYOTchat |
| mraspinall | If you cannot use twitter or find edmodo tough for younger students, try http://t.co/Qs9hDabE as an alternative #BYOTchat |
| riedyj | Schoology vs. Edmodo comparison https://t.co/Rp3DqpI3 #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @mraspinall That looks great! #byotchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @MyTakeOnIt @BYOTNetwork I use wikispaces too and it works well. #byotchat |

| MyTakeOnIt | “@SrtaLisa: Weebly has a better interface than Wikispaces on a mobile device #BYOTchat†I hear of a lot of peope who really love Weebly! |
| Mike_Penta | @Edu_Thompson Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio  Great median size school district! #BYOTchat |
| hugghinss | @SteveHayes_RB60 I am the only teacher on my campus who uses Twitter for class work & “homework” #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @Mike_Penta @SteveHayes_RB60 Oh, wow. It’s great to see other stakeholders, in addition to teachers, here at #BYOTchat |
| SrtaLisa | Weebly automatically creates a mobile version of the site, very useful when students have different devices #BYOTchat |
| riedyj | @Mike_Penta Nice to see someone else from Ohio. Holgate, OH here #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @mraspinall Thank you—Twiducate is new to me. #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @ShellTerrell – Shelly, Thank you for stopping by BYOTchat! #byotchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @MyTakeOnIt @SrtaLisa Our district only supports wikispaces #Byotchat |
| Mike_Penta | @MyTakeOnIt Thanks! It takes a community, can’t put it all on just teachers. #BYOTchat |
| twiducate | @ashlynnd5 Love using #twiducate as I lay on my couch to help my Ss with homwrk.such a useful #learningtool.Chat feature is great #BYOTchat |
| riedyj | @hugghinss how do you use twitter in your class? |
| BYOTNetwork | Saw an awesome use of Evernote today in a Spanish class #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @Edu_Thompson @hugghinss I find Hootsuite too cramped on my iPhone, but I love it on iPad #BYOTchat |
| Mike_Penta | @riedyj The same! #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | RT @Mike_Penta: @MyTakeOnIt Thanks! It takes a community, cant put it all on just teachers. #byotchat |

| MyTakeOnIt | RT @Mike_Penta: @MyTakeOnIt Thanks! It takes a community, can’t put it all on just teachers. #BYOTchat |
| daveandcori | Google Docs on BYOT? Google Docs are perfect for #BYOD b/c device and OS agnostic. Web based apps best for #BYOTchat |
| SrtaLisa | RT @BYOTNetwork: Saw an awesome use of Evernote today in a Spanish class #BYOTchat I’ve seen creative personalized use by students too |
| MyTakeOnIt | “@Edu_Thompson: @SrtaLisa So that’s an interesting problem/question: What can tchrs support without support from their district? #BYOTchat |

| twiducate | RT @MyTakeOnIt: @mraspinall Thank you—Twiducate is new to me. #BYOTchat |

| SrtaLisa | @Edu_Thompson What do you mean your district only supports wikispaces? #BYOTchat that is so mind boggling I can’t understand |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | Welcome Jason! @JasonLobdell #byotchat |
| hugghinss | @riedyj Progressive story, for a warm-up at beginning of class I use Twitpoll, project collaboration #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @Joe_Mazza Do many of your teachers used Edmodo? #byotchat |
| daveandcori | Should schools require students to purchase specific types of tech? |
| MyTakeOnIt | @riedyj @hugghinss Recently I’ve been using Twitter 2 connect Stus w/ other educators, Stus, & resources outside of school #BYOTchat |

| MyTakeOnIt | RT @cybraryman1: My Teaching with Twitter sites: http://t.co/LXq2A1mZ #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @SrtaLisa I think it has to do with the fact we have a partnership with them so our class “websites” are really wikispaces #byotchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @SteveHayes_RB60 @Joe_Mazza Love edmodo #byotchat |
| BYOTNetwork | @mraspinall Does Twiducate require an email address for an account…this is our issue with BYOT in elementary #BYOTchat |
| dschoening | @riedyj @daveandcori Require or suggest? #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | @ashlynnd5 welcome to BYOTchat #byotchat |
| riedyj | @daveandcori My school is having this debate currently |
| MyTakeOnIt | “@BYOTNetwork: Saw an awesome use of Evernote today in a Spanish class #BYOTchatâ€I don’t use Evernote, but I know that I am one of the FEW! |
| MyTakeOnIt | @nathan_stevens @riedyj @hugghinss I’ll add blogs 2 this growing list of BYOFriendly tools I often use WordPress & Blogger #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt @riedyj @hugghinss I wish typepad had a better app for mobile devices #BYOTchat chat |
| riedyj | @dschoening not sure, if you make requirements some students may not have a device. We were thinking netbook or laptop for keyboar #BYOTchat |
| hugghinss | @MyTakeOnIt @riedyj That is really the most important use. Teaching students to reach out & connect is important #BYOTchat |
| SrtaLisa | I think BYOFriendly tool = web based with either a mobile site or an app. Just web based or just app will alienate some users #BYOTchat |
| daveandcori | @MyTakeOnIt true, but not all apps are cross platform. Other issue incl Flash – lots of ed sites use Flash but iPhone can’t #BYOTchat |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | my daughter (high school) is using wordpress for a class project – it’s easy for the students to learn – and looks great! #byotchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @daveandcori very true. Now that Flash is going fully HTML5 that should become less of a problem, but it is a big limitation #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @daveandcori @mytakeonit flash is on its way out #BYOTchat |
| Edu_Thompson | @MyTakeOnIt @BYOTNetwork I don;t use it either as I use pearltress but wondering if I should switch over. #byotchat |

| SteveHayes_RB60 | Agree – RT @nathan_stevens: @daveandcori @mytakeonit flash is on its way out #byotchat |
| Lisa_Donohue | @SteveHayes_RB60 @ShellTerrell @Joe_Mazza #byotchat I used Edmodo to connect studnts from diff schools 2 collaborate and create media pieces |
| daveandcori | Evernote for Education resources |
| SteveHayes_RB60 | I like that with evernote you can public share a notebook (via a url) to anyone regardless if they have an acct or not #byotchat |
| daveandcori | @TimeToKnow exactly. #BYOTchat and #BYOD must be open with no requirements |
| daveandcori | RT @nathan_stevens @daveandcori @mytakeonit flash is on its way out #BYOTchat – Not yet. Lots of educ sites still use Flash. |
| BYOTNetwork | We are considering Gmail (edu) accounts for everyone in our district. How many of you provide email for students? #BYOTchat |

| SteveHayes_RB60 | Forsyth County, GA – Is way ahead of the curve! Check their school webpage! They are doing amazing things with BYOT! #byotchat |

| TimeToKnow | @nathan_stevens @hugghinss @SteveHayes_RB60 One of those dig. cit. skills that goes with using tech in classroom. #BYOTchat |
| slackt | @MyTakeOnIt @byotnetwork It is. I am trying to get everyone in our school to discover just how amazing it is. #BYOTchat |
| SrtaLisa | I have a digital techbook instead of a textbook, so a student just being able to tweet isn’t enough #BYOTchat |
| nathan_stevens | @hugghinss @timetoknow @stevehayes_rb60 students need to know that anything posted on the internet stays on the internet #BYOTchat |
| BYOTNetwork | “@MyTakeOnIt: students need to be empowered to use the best tools for their needs, as do teachers #BYOTchat†YES!!! |
| TimeToKnow | @hugghinss @SteveHayes_RB60 This is something I struggle with. As professional straddling the social gen we’re charting the course #BYOTchat |
| BYOTNetwork | @SteveHayes_RB60 – You’re welcome! Thanks for hosting such a great #BYOTchat |
| slackt | @MyTakeOnIt @byotnetwork Have too many ideas sometimes and have to remind myself to slow down. Who else has the same problem? #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @nathan_stevens hahaha! But what if that’s the tool that best fits their learning style? #BYOTchat? |
| MyTakeOnIt | @slackt @byotnetwork Same here. Just be patient—it takes time. #BYOTchat |
| TimeToKnow | @srtalisa Guess students need to learn how to share. The one’s with “big screen” devices (laptop/tablet) can share with friends. #BYOTchat |
| MyTakeOnIt | @SrtaLisa It really depends on what your goals are in the classroom or in the school. #BYOTchat |

| hugghinss | @TimeToKnow @SteveHayes_RB60 Yes, that is why it is important for teachers & students to be learning partners. #BYOTchat |

| nathan_stevens | @MyTakeOnIt it’s nice to see a palm, but if is past end of life that should be the line #BYOTchat |
| SrtaLisa | @TimeToKnow there is a mobile version, it works just fine on an iPod Touch – but doesn’t work without internet #BYOTchat |
