First of all, I'd like to share that we have a brand new black lab puppy in my family. My girls are thrilled and I am getting even less sleep than normal. Now, down to business...
I am making it around the school from classroom to classroom...slowly. I have yet to talk to some of you. I will eventually.
Prior to the school year I set some goals for myself as Technology Coach. I revealed a little bit of these when I mentioned 'my vision' in an email earlier this week. As I watched and learned these first two weeks I began to formulate even more of a plan. However, before revealing anymore about plans and goals I would like to offer my help.
What can I help you with in order to get technology integrated into our curriculum? I want to help but must admit that I am not a hardware/network specialist. I am not Jimmy Fallon's 'Tech Guy' from Saturday Night Live. I may not have answers initially or immediate feedback for you but I will work to find a solution.
I also plan to model some of the ideas and strategies that I envision eventually being used in classrooms.
With this new modeling career in mind...Watch this seven minuted video about how to come up with writing prompts for your content areas. After watching the video, I would like you to 'Comment' on this blog entry by answering these questions: Was this at all helpful? What is the silly nickname I call myself (watch to the very end...fill in the blank...'His ________________, inc.')?
Feel free to click around an tour this site. I have posted a couple of videos from the first two weeks of school on the 'Podcasts and Videos' page....
