Terrific site created by Michelle Krill as a PETE & C presentation. She did an excellent job of pulling technology and LFS together.

Great site created by Michelle Krill who presented it at the PETE & C conference. Great site that shows connections between technology and LFS.

Both of these presentations are excellent. If you have whiteboard or clickers in your school or use promethean software you will learn so much from Deb Pickerings presentation. I recommend that everyone take time to review these archived presentations.

Hey gang. I know you are all busy people but if you want to see two presentations that will grow and engage your thinking as an educator check out these. They really sum up what technology integration is all about. Good use of technology builds on what educators understand about effective instruction and assessment strategies.

I am thinking that you could connect with a class in another school in or out of state and you could set up a group for the two groups of studetns to interact. Maybe they could talk about a novel they are reading or about a current event.
