The Base Camp and UNIVERSTAR story unfolds
After the BT21 gathered together, they searched for a place to live in. This place is the Base Camp. “#UNIVERSTAR_story_unfolds” is a series of tweets following their daily life there. I can be considered as a part of the BT21 UNIVERSE story, fitting between season 2 and 3.
The Place
The BT21 settled in a nice house in the city. We know of one main room including the living room, the kitchen, and a bedroom corner, as well as a dance studio and the rooftop of the building where you can also find Tata’s secret place.
The Base Camp is was created during episode 3 of BT21 Universe. We learned it serves as a company and as a dorm and that it was provided by Tata. It includes a training room, a studio, a garden, and a gym area. You can follow the life of the BT21 in the Base Camp with #BASECAMP. There’s also a Base Camp page in the Hello BT21 photo album, mainly showing when the BT21 moved in.
1. The Base Camp
Here’s how it looks from the outside:
Tumblr media
We can see (the links in parenthesis are pictures happening in this location):
Tata’s secret place (see the next part for the details)
RJ’s garden and the little wood (swings)
Mang’s skate ramp
the training space
Cooky’s gym corner
a cozy space (churros; eat more, sing louder)
the RV: it was lifted up there by Van in giant mode (the laundry picture probably happened before the RV was placed here)
And here’s how it looks from the inside. There’s no official plan so this is a guess based on the pictures and videos we got.
Tumblr media
There are several rooms, seen in different pictures:
the bathroom (Chimmy shaving)
the dance studio (movie night, Baby Shark collaboration)
the main room with:
a kitchen corner (detective RJ)
the living room (decorating the tree, cookie time, CHIMMY’s lesson, cups - the cups also appear during the picnic, - Creation of BT21)
the lockers
TATA, SHOOKY, MANG, and CHIMMY’s bedroom could be in the RV. Whether their room is in the RV or in the building, it is next to the shelf with their cups, where they hanged socks for Christmas and where RJ watched MOYA’s video.
Several scenes of BT21 UNIVERSE 3 “COOKY’s Fight Night” are in the base camp. These two pictures too.
More pictures of the BT21 at the Base Camp can be seen in the stories below.
2. Tata’s secret place
Tata’s secret place is a water tank on the rooftop, transformed into a lab with all of Tata’s things inside.
We discovered this place through a series of questions, which answer you’ll find below with the translation of Tata’s language (you can also see bigger versions of these pictures on this Twitter thread):
Tumblr media Tumblr media
The picture with everyone, on the right, comes from here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There’s a phone directly connected to the base camp. Tata’s resolution for 2019 can be seen here.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Here’s the article about Rj that Sally wrote.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Tata’s best cuts is an impressive collection of polaroids, which respectively come from:
We came to find the Neverland from ferrytale We’d like to go far far away. Wooden shoe?

Tumblr media
“#UNIVERSTAR_story_unfolds” appeared in several tweets from 2nd January to 27th February 2019. It seems to be the part following BT21 while they're living together.
Sometimes there are tweets that fit in the narrative but don’t have the hashtag so I’ll mention and link them but I won’t put the picture here.
The story
Chapter 0: Happy Holidays
This chapter is closer to a teaser than an actual tale. It shows us the BT21 during the holidays.
It started with a playful snowball fight.
Tumblr media
Then they prepared for Christmas. They decorated the Christmas tree, in a way that kind of looked like last year, minus the explosion...
Tumblr media
They hanged their socks - or whatever they had at hand...
Tumblr media
They ate cookies...
Tumblr media
And Chimmy sang a carol. We have a complete summary of those holidays in Tata’s mail!
youtube
Lastly, Tata took over a billboard during the New Year, thus checking one of his goals to become a universtar!
Chapter 1: Universtar story unfolds
It’s a new year, so it’s time to get started anew! First thing first, let’s clean up! Put all your things in boxes and take them outside while it’s happening.
Tumblr media
Once the cleaning is done, let’s decorate!
Tumblr media
Then let’s tidy everything up! Including the gym equipment!
Tumblr media
Cooky’s side is done! (and looks like Chimmy kept his picture preciously)
Tumblr media
It’s already late! Everyone go to sleep! Shooky, Mang, Chimmy, and Tata share a room together...
Tumblr media
The next day, they set up the skate ramp so Master Mang can give his lessons!
Tumblr media
Eventually, they have to get inside because it started pouring! Luckily, they each other to help to dry everyone!
Tumblr media
But let’s hurry to the bathroom, tonight we’re going to the merry-go-round!
Tumblr media
The next day is also busy, RJ, Shooky, and Tata take care of the garden!
Tumblr media
Now that all the plants received water, let’s play hide and seek!
Tumblr media
That night, Tata stays up. He’s up to something!
Tumblr media
Chimmy also his own resolutions, he’s going to learn Tata’s language!
(Translation: name hello! my name is Chimm[?] Chimmy is holding the y card)
Tumblr media
Chapter 2: Secret Photographer
A mysterious photographer has appeared in BT21′s dorm! His first model is RJ doing his laundry! Oh, looks like one of Chimmy undies got mixed with his scarves...
Tumblr media
The next one is sleeping Shooky! Even in his dreams, he and the crunchy squad will fight milk!
Tumblr media
Fearless Cooky is always training haaaaAAAAAAARG!!!
Tumblr media
Mang and Koya also work hard to dab perfectly! They even have RJ and Cooky standees to support them.
Tumblr media
RJ bought carrots, paprika and a nice big lump of meat for dinner. But it looks like someone isn’t very fond of the green things...
Tumblr media
Who could be the one behind all those pictures?
Shooky found him!
It’s...
A Tatarazzi!

Digital Leadership with Students and Social Media featuring Jennifer Casa-Todd
www.coolcatteacher.com/e124
Introduction
VICKI: Today we are thinking about digital leadership. No, not as educators necessarily, but really helping our kids move from digital citizenship to digital leadership, with the author of the book Social LEADia. We have Jennifer Casa-Todd @JCasaTodd with us today.
What is digital leadershp?
VICKI: So Jennifer, how are we supposed to move from digital citizenship to digital leadership? Because, I mean, social media in schools and the kids Instagramming or Snapchatting or whatever, kind of scares people.
JENNIFER: Yes. It really does. But digital leadership is such a positive way of looking at it, and I got the definition from a good friend of mine and mentor, George Couros.  And he talks about using technology and social media to improve the lives, well-being, and circumstances of others. And that is so counter cultural, right?
And he started to talk about kids who are doing this. And so what I’ve done, is I’ve realized that so many kids are engaged in this already. They are learning, and sharing their learning, they are standing up for important causes and they’re being a positive influence on others. So really, I think it’s about changing our lens. Moving away from a fear narrative towards this more positive stance, and then looking at using social media in the context of our classrooms and digital leadership at a younger age through class accounts.
Examples of Digital Leadership
VICKI: So give me an example. You like class accounts. We’ve had people on the show like Karen Lirenman (Listen to: http://www.coolcatteacher.com/01-ipads-elementary-lirenman-wideen/ )and lots of teachers who have class accounts. So give us some examples of what you think is, “Okay. This is digital leadership with kids.”
JENNIFER: Okay. So Kayla Delzer http://www.topdogteaching.com/for example. Her third grade class, they have the Tweeter of the day, the Instagrammer of the day, and the Snapchatter of the day. And I’m not suggesting you need to do all three of them. But there’s a grade three class where they are looking at opportunities to work and behave online, and then the teacher can have conversations about, “What does it mean to keep something private? When do we share it publicly? How can we be a positive influence on others?”
Another teacher doing this is Rob Cannone @mr_robcannone And one of the really neat things about what I’ve seen with his class, he’s in the same district I’m in, is that as a result of the kinds of activities the classes are engaged in. So just reaching out to others, and including a young girl with a tumor rather, Monica So as a result of engaging in these activities where they are trying to be a more positive influence on others, their own social media accounts have been really positive testaments to what can happen when we model this effectively.
Parents and Digital Leadership in Students
VICKI: Does this scare parents?
JENNIFER: Yes and no. I think that parents right now are scared because of all of the negative media around kids and social media use. I mean it’s everywhere, right? It’s very much sensationalized, but in the examples that I bring up, not just in the book, but if you think of all the people that are using social media to reach out, to connect to other classes, to transform learning experiences, parents are completely on board, because it changes conversations, right? So you’re not saying, “What did you do in school today?” and get the monosyllabic, “Whatever.” You’re saying, “Wow. Tell me more about this activity that you just did.” Or, “I noticed that you did this. What was that like?”
So it really changes conversations. Certainly, it’s a communication thing with parents. This other kindergarten class, Stephanie Baveros, (editor’s note: have not been able to locate this teacher will will add to the show notes as soon as possible.) where she started to engage her parents in an Instagram account, and having her four-year-old decide on what needs to be shared and what needs to be private, her parents were so intrigued by it that she actually had workshops for them. So it became this beautiful symbiotic relationship between the parents and the teacher. And the communication was only strengthened by their use of social media.
Impact of Digital Leadership on Students
VICKI: Well, I know in my student genius projects, I encourage them to use social media. And one of my students, she’s graduated now so I can say her full name and she’ll talk about it publicly, her name is Morgan Singleton, and when she was in tenth grade she had a Twitter account called Apps for Autism. https://twitter.com/apps_for_autism?lang=en  And she would research apps for autistic kids. And do you know she got a direct message from a parent who she had done some work for? The parent said, “My child is reading because of you.” And it was just so beautiful. And that exchange just couldn’t have happened outside of social media, you know?
JENNIFER: Wow. I love it. Absolutely. And there are so many more examples of that positive and transformational experience than we actually know about. Which is why, in the book, I really do bring in the voices of students and their experiences. And there are tons of kids that are absolutely changing the world today. In small and impactfully big ways too.
The Biggest Mistake with Social Media in Schools
VICKI: So Jennifer, what do you think the biggest mistake that administrators and teachers make when thinking about social media and the students in their school?
JENNIFER: I think that administrators truly believe that if we ban and block, all will be well. And I don’t think that that’s the case. Henry Jenkins, Mizuko Ito and Dana Boyd  talk about increasing risks for kids. I think embracing social media in a school, engaging in conversations alongside teachers and students, not just using social media to celebrate the students, but also to have them engage and respond in social media, so that we’re actually modeling what this positive effective use can be. Those are things that I think we need to start to think about today. Can students handle trolls?
Editor’s Note: A troll is a person who likes to harass or sometimes just bother another person online. 
VICKI: Is it okay to teach kids how to handle trolls?
JENNIFER Absolutely. It’s necessary. Olivia, a wonderful nine-year-old at the has a really awesome little video about that, and how important it is for her to work with her mom, in her case her mom, to navigate some of these murky waters. I think that educators can be these caring adults. With the class account, we can– and I don’t think we’re really putting our kids at risk. I think though, that it’s just an amazing, fertile opportunity for teaching moments together in a supportive and guided environment that when kids are out on their own, they’ll be able to take those skills and transfer them.
Why Teachers Should Consider Social Media in their Classrooms
VICKI: So Jennifer, our last 30 seconds. Give a pitch to teachers about why they should consider social media in their classroom.
JENNIFER: Kids are already using social media in greater and greater numbers on their own. And some parents absolutely help mentor their children. Some don’t. To me, it’s an equity issue. But not only that, we can completely change the trajectory of where social media’s going today. Because we can ensure that it’s a more positive place for everybody. And that’s the kind of world I want to live in. VICKI: You know social media just belongs in our classroom. We should use it for our projects, we should use to share with the world. It really just belongs there. It’s just another way to communicate. We will have a give away for this book, Social LEADia. Check the show notes, engage with Jennifer, she’s got so many fantastic ideas for us.
