    Don't Forget the Glue Stick Cap: Little Things, Big Lessons in Tech Integration | Rachelle Dené Poth

    What can a missing glue stick cap teach us about the future of learning? In this inspiring conversation, educator and author Rachelle Dene Poth joins Integrate This! to share her journey through education, innovation, and the art of balancing creativity with structure. Rachelle talks about her transition from world language teacher to technology leader, the lessons she’s learned from her students, and how embracing new tools—like AI—can help teachers foster student voice, agency, and curiosity. Along the way, she reflects on how blogging turned into book writing, why digital discernment matters more than ever, and how small habits (like putting the cap back on the glue stick) model responsibility, respect, and reflection in both tech and teaching. Whether you’re new to EdTech or already exploring AI in your classroom, Rachelle’s thoughtful approach will help you see innovation not as something flashy or intimidating—but as a series of intentional, human choices that make learning stronger and more connected.
