PPT top 2 keyboard shortcuts for teaching:

(B) Blank screen, take the slides away from attention, shift focus. Sometimes the best slide is no slide. Online, also consider stop sharing when not in use.

(#+Enter) jumping to a slide, or the end can be handy and avoid click click click, oops too far.
Keyboard key and explanation times 2:
B - Blanks the screen (toggle). Handy to shift attention
9 - Number + Enter jumps to a slide (try 99 to jump to the end, unless you have way too many slides!)

I’ve not replaced it yet so I don’t know how the screen will react to that, but placing it on was surprisingly painless

It has been transformative- I used no “not get” iPad drawing/ writing, it felt clunky and a bit annoying, despite Apple Pencil appearing like the ultimate note taking thing I had to have. Since getting one it has changed that, it feels better

Thank you for making me welcome, I was chuckling away to myself whilst typing and following along! Nice to meet you all #LTHEChat

notes for the joy of it
notes to remember
notes to share and notes to bring
secret scribbles
happy messes
notes are therapy to my brain

A5 #LTHEChat @drntasler.bsky.social This is a tricky one, I wish AI was fully ethical, and used with a critical eye. I am no technophobe but it evolves so quickly I just don't know how to use it well! I'm going to some upskilling sessions. Ethical AI would be useful and not take away creativity

... everything is cool when you're part of #LTHEChat ?!?

Paperlike on the ipad is super for that reason, I hated drawing on an ipad before I got one (not an advert, just a tale!) #LTHEchat

That sounds gorgeous! I miss Paperchase for this, I preferred their nice selection of fineliners for notes for a while. I also like to stationery shop when I go somewhere new #LTHEChat

A4 #LTHEChat @drntasler.bsky.social It depends, messy notes can be super helpful but if I am making encouraging "notes to self" or things to give away I will make things deliberately pretty. Here's a pile of sketches/notes from my archive ;)
a pile of various notesbooks of different sizes and styles

This is last semester's planning part! #LTHEchat
a diary covered in various stickers which relate to teaching and learning, including bookshop images, text which says "I am a teacher what is your superpower" and "made to teach", some cats and a dinosaur with books

A3 #LTHEChat @drntasler.bsky.social *make and take notes*, otherwise it is unlikely things will be remembered .. apologies I do not know if @gemmacorrell.bsky.social has this online, please remove it if it upsets rules, I am still learning BlueSky but this cartoon always makes me chuckle!
screenshot of a Gemma Correll cartoon dated 25 April 2024, a self portrait of two versions of her, sitting in a comfortable chair with a dog on her lap. One thought bubble says "I should write this idea down" the other says "nah, I'll remember" with a sub text on the bottom saying "spoiler alert: she did not remember". Her signature is bottom right

Yes, OneNote etc has some potential for that I guess- I'm always in awe of students who have great ipad/tablet skills and do this stuff with ease across loads of different programmes/ apps #LTHEChat
