Twitches and Purrrs...

Throughout these two weeks in "Tech. school", I think that we have all developed some great ideas and strategies for tackling next year with new tools and tricks. I hope that we won't forget the excitement and motivation we have all felt here (purrrs). I know that the realities of teaching will set in and we will all be busy(twitch), but I look forward to carrying on some of the great conversations and collaborative relationships that have developed. This was a GREAT opportunity for me and I hope you all felt the same way.

Quotes from EDU 578...

"There is no "right way" to integrate intelligences or technology into the classroom. The key is to provide the most effective learning environment for students."

"I think much of what we call technology staff development is a lot like buying drill bits; it is one or two steps removed from what really needs to be done. We plan staff development to improve student learning. But we are often too focused on training teachers to use a tool without the clear vision of how we can transform learning for our students."
~Alan November article, "Drill the Teachers, Educate the kids
