Thank you, Texarkana ISD, for such a warm reception at your back to school, instructional technology-themed conference today. It was so nice to have a welcoming environment when I know how hard it is to listen to someone talk to you for 90 minutes to start the day. Hopefully, I was able to get you motivated for the kiddos who will be filling the halls and rooms next week.
As I mentioned in my talk, I am listing the links to the videos and sites we talked about during both the keynote and my breakout sessions. If you have any questions or I left something off, please leave a comment and I will add it in or get back with you about your questions. I look forward to working with your district again in the future. Good luck in the coming school year!
Keynote – “Instructional Technology: Who’s driving?”
Breakout Session – “Social Networking: It’s not just for kids anymore”
National Technology Standards:
Dr. Helen Barrett’s ePortfolio work
White Oak ISD’s ePortfolio & blog site
Voicethread site (book review samples)
2nd Grade teacher’s (Emily Richeson) blog
Edublogs (education only blogs)
Scott’s Delicious account (bookmarking)
Google Apps (Docs, Spreadsheet, Calendar, Presentation, Forms)
