Appy New Year!

Yesterday, four Highlands Elementary Students and I presented at the Edina Ed Fund's winter Luncheon.  It was our treat to be able to share some of the ways that the elementary students have been learning using the iPod Touch.  Each of the students had a chance to share how they use the Apps, how it engages them in learning, and why they think learning with the iTouch is better than without it.


Here is our presentation and some photos from the event.  Way to go Highlands Elementary kiddos!

Highlands PTA Meeting November 10, 2009

Tomorrow night I'll be presenting to Highlands Elementary Parent Teacher Association.

The goal of the meeting is to share the many ways that technology is being integrated into the classroom. My opener for the presentation will be to challenge the parents not to only ask

"What did you learn at school today?"

but also ask...

"How did you learn at school today?"

Here is my presentation as well as the link to the website for the presentation.

KIC Google Presentation

I will be giving this Google Presentation to a group at TIES called the Key Instructional Contacts. KIC includes people from around the metro area that are Technology Integration Specialists. We meet on a monthly basis to learn from each other about new technology tools and applications.
