We all need more laughter in our lives, so call a friend today, watch your favorite comedy, try laughter yoga or just look in the mirror & try a round (even if it's forced) of ha-ha-ha-ha!

On a honeycomb background, a yellow laughing face, slanted on the side with tears of laughter and an open mouth pictured with the text: Laughter triggers the release of endorphins, the body's natural "feel-good" chemicals & helps lower stress hormones like cortisol & adrenaline. #DigitalWellnessAdvent on the top right corner of the slide. A logo on the bottom right corner with hands the color of the earth holding a heart with one side colored and textured like a brain and the other side pink like a heart.

This resonates deeply with me: "We need a new conversation about tech that is both critical and optimistic."

Always interested in how school communities host these types of conversations!

On a black background with a floral design with primarily purple flowers with splashes of white, yellow, and pink/orange flowers is the text centered: Technology is both...Helpful and harmful. Exhausting and energizing. Connecting and dividing. Technology is multifaceted, so our approach needs to be, too.

What a great way to use #AI tools! This is how you #UseTech4Good! #AltText #EduSky #Accessibility #AccessibilityMatters

Helpful Hint: If you're struggling to create effective ALT Text for those using screen readers, consider leveraging AI tools. While they may not produce perfection, they can provide a solid starting point to refine.

The background of the image is a vibrant blue sky with soft, flowing, white clouds that resemble gentle waves or streaks, adding a serene and airy effect. In the center-left is a large, prominently featured yellow emoji with a thinking expression: a raised eyebrow, slightly furrowed brow, and a hand resting on its chin, conveying a sense of contemplation. To the right of the emoji, the main heading reads “Alt Text Hint” in bold, yellow, uppercase letters with a slight shadow effect, making it stand out against the blue background. Below this heading is a block of smaller black text with a helpful tip: "If you are having trouble creating ALT Text, consider uploading your image to ChatGPT and asking for ALT Text. You may need to tweak, but it does give a good start." In the bottom left corner of the image, a small hashtag reads #accessabilityforall in black text, emphasizing inclusivity and accessibility. The overall design is clean, inviting, and focused on accessibility awareness.

We need to create more learning experiences where our school communities see & value the human sitting next to us, around the world & across the screen.

Focus on what unites us, what makes us human, where we celebrate the #SameHere moments in life.

On a honeycomb background, a variety of human colored arms and hands raised pictured with the text: See & value the human being next to you, around the world & across the screen. This message is inspired from a student-led project, #iCitizenProject from the Fall of 2011 which launched my work in both the digital citizenship space and #UseTech4Good: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vgmZLXQLNPQ A logo on the bottom right corner with hands the color of the earth holding a heart with one side colored and textured like a brain and the other side pink like a heart.
