Once upon a time, there were two friends talking about the signs of the 21st century teachers. |

| What does your students do to participate in class? I am asking you because I use to tell them to tweet their questions and comments. But also, I encourage them to record a video talking about a controversial topic and submitte it. | |
|
| Well, I make my students turn in their cell phones before the class starts because I plan on using them in class. Then, I just ask them to do a historical character and create him/her a mock social media profile. Also, I encourage them to create a study guide, so that they work together on a wiki group. | |

After a conversation, Susan wants to know more about the methods his collegue uses when the budget is not enough. |
|
| And what happens when you want to learn something different and your budget does not reach you? | |
|
| I think money is the least because there are so many free resources on the web we can use. Also, you can take your students on a field trip to the Great Wall of China without leaving your classroom. And during the class, my students share stories of their summer vacation, through an online photo repository. | |

By that, moment they discover, they were members of SimpleK12s Teacher Learning Community because they have the possibility to encourage a non-tech teacher to join them! |
|
| Ah, okay. Those are really useful tips. But tel me, what do you do with those students who are rude with the rest? | |
|
| Ok, usually, I teach my students not to be bullies or cyberbullies. | |
