Hi, I tried to follow the discussion and I picked up some good ideas, particularly, using technology to deal with misbehavior so I decided to join the group. Thanks.

Hi everyone!

I'd like to get our conversations in this group going, as promised.  I just posted a blog item from eSchoolNews about 10 ways schools are using social media tools effectively.  Lots of up for debate there no doubt, so I am hoping we will!

What do you think about the ideas listed? What do you agree or disagree with? What have you done with social media tools that you can share with this group? What are some of the pitfalls you have faced and how have you worked around them?

Looking forward to hearing from many of you!

Dear Integrating Technology Group Members,

I am hoping to re-start group activity and will be working on facilitating discussions on technology related topics of interest in the coming weeks. 

I hope you will join me in making this a vibrant community that engages in rich and productive discussions!

My first order of business is finding out two things:

1.  What technology related topics are you looking for/need information on?  These may be topics we discuss within this group, and/or the MSP2 staff may organize webinars on these topics for the MSP2 community at large.

2.  What topics would YOU be interested in sharing your expertise with the group (and the MSP2 community at large)? For e.g., this could occur via a webinar, blog post or other related activity within MSP2.

Please let me know your thoughts, I look forward to hearing from you soon!

Sarita Pillai

MSP2, Co-PI

Power Point Presentations Beyond Note Taking

The use of PowerPoint presentations in schools takes advantage of education technology integration strategies and techniques. However, student learning is not improved when these presentations are merely a substitute for note taking bullets from older overhead projectors. To take advantage of the power of this technology, the elimination of boring slide shows must be replaced with interactive story telling that keeps students engaged.

What is the Technology Footprint in Your Classroom?

In contrast to the technology teachers’ use in the classroom for their professional use, what is the technology (digital) footprint students’ use in a classroom? When effectively integrated into teaching and student learning, technology has the power to transform a classroom into an influential learning community. Within this digital community students use technology tools to create collaborative and personal learning networks to support their learning.

 

Strategies and techniques are provided regarding the benefits of using digital tools to support teaching and learning in any content area or grade level.

Amy, I am a technology educator who loves to integrate the academic subjects into my technology classes. My view is that the computer is a tool, just like a pencil. We need to use it to learn the academic areas, not learn skills in isolation. What are your interests? BTW, Bonnie Bracey Sutton, who was at the breakfast, is an incredible technologist!

I am attending the NMSA Annual Conference and I am at the MSP2 Networking Breakfast. I am a technology integrator helping math and science teachers integrate technology into their classrooms... Are there any other technology educators attending?
