iPad as a
Dynamic Teaching Tool or Using Blogger
as a Classroom Website
iPad as a
Dynamic Teaching Tool presented by
Michael Nieckoski
The iPad is a game-changing technology for the
classroom that makes instruction and learning something that can literally be
held in the hand. This workshop will show some ways that this remarkable device
can be used by teachers to present material in their classrooms: by sharing the
iPad screen; by using the cameras and connectivity in the classroom, and as an
interactive feedback tool. Topics will include: hardware needed; app
suggestions for presentations, interactive lessons, and for classroom feedback
(some free, some not as free).
Please bring
with you to the session:
your iPad or
iPad Mini
2)your Apple
ID and password and,
one or two
ideas or lesson plans that you’d like to teach using the iPad as your primary
delivery device. Please ensure that you have the capability of downloading and
installing apps on your device.
Blogger as
a Classroom Website by Art Skerker
Blogger can be used as a great tool for a
classroom website or as an addition to an already existing classroom
website. Need to communicate immediately
events that are happening in your classroom or want a venue for your students
to share what they are learning then come and try blogger. Classroom photos, student work, graphs,
drawings, and writeups can all be added to your blog easily. Bring a connected device and ideas of things
you would like to share.
The meetings
will have great snacks, certificates to document your PD and dinner at 5:30 for anyone who
would like to stay. Dinner is a great
time to troubleshoot, ask questions and collaborate with others.
The southeast
VITA-Learn PD meetings rely on those of you who get this email to get the WORD
out. PLEASE
forward this email to your staff, tech committees, principals, curriculum
coordinators!!!!! ANYONE who you can think of that would benefit
from these sessions.
If you have
any questions please feel free to contact me.
