Teacher Development: Fueling Teachers to Go High-Tech | Edutopia - 0 views

  •  
    "Forest Lake principal Kappy Cannon didn't leave it up to teachers to decide whether they would join the digital revolution. As long as you provide adequate support, she reasons, you can demand that it be done. This mandate from the boss gave the school's tech-integration team a major boost. Also helpful: instructional-technology specialist Paulette Williams's sweet but insistent approach. When the school got interactive whiteboards, she gave teachers six months to relinquish their old overhead projectors. Then she said, "You can give me the projectors peacefully, or I'm going to take them." "

    Nice tie-in to Social Studies projects (most likely 8th grade). The trees that still live from the time of the atomic bombing in Hiroshima are called, Hibaku trees (A-bombed trees) -- I've sent away for some seeds for us.
