Check out the video bar

I have added the video bar for you to look at, this will help you explain to teachers why it is important to use various technology in their classrooms, show them the video and invite them to blog with us.

Happy New Year Tech Keys and Followers

Hello Tech Keys,
I hope you are ready to work hard this year. We are going to start the year off with presenting some lessons on different technology tools that our classrooms have. I want each of you to find a tool to present to teachers at the in service on January 9th. This is one of your big accomplishments for completing your first semester of being a Tech Key. Sky will be presenting a lesson on the Mimio. Joli you may want to find a lesson for the smartboard/zune, Garrett you could show how podcasting can be very useful in a classroom and Roger you can present on iMovie and editing. I will get with you on Wednesday, January 7th. I will meet you in the cafeteria while you eat lunch. Bring your logs, please.
You guys will be using your skills in your daily classrooms with all your teachers. You will have to remind them and ask them if you could help them with an upcoming lesson. Hopefully they will allow you to help them present a lesson using their technology tools. You will need to have time to confer with the teacher on what the lesson will cover and how you will present it. If you additional help please let me know I will help you. We want teachers to use their classroom technology resources to help teach interactive lessons while covering the standards and benchmarks that teachers are accountable to teach and students are accountable to learn.
Let me hear from you Tech Keys!!!!
