Inspiring, informative, useful, or just plain fun tweets posted on Twitter over this past week … collected here to share with our blog readers.
This week in the wrap … students fight fake news, tips for IDs to build immersive lessons, the Digital Learning Innovation Awards are taking submissions, lifting others by letting them fall, unleashing genius, and two pieces focused on cybersecurity in education - one asking who should be responsible for teaching college students about cybersecurity (note: all institutions are bound by various regulations to offer regular security awareness training to staff and faculty, and I believe faculty should embrace the opportunity to leverage this to raise students' awareness), and the other providing a look at 105 cyber security incidents at U.S. schools in 2016. And that's not all … explore, enjoy, learn, share.
