On Wednesday I presented at the Fresno County Office of Education Tech Conference for Administrators up at the Tenaya Lodge. Just the fact that we had a conference like that is encouraging, given school administrators are the least tech-savvy members of our profession.
The PowerPoint presentation I used is on my website(www.caedtech.com/examples.htm) and will will provide some useful opinions on what good educational technology integration looks like.
Here is today's tech tip for tech integration. If you visit this blog often, you'll see this one repeated a few times. This one is the fundamental component of ed tech at your school:
Use a computer and projection device for DIRECT INSTRUCTION. In other words, train teachers to use PowerPoint, Keynote, Excel, Word, Appleworks and/or iLife to present engaging content to their students. LOSE the overhead, blackboard, whiteboard, and flip chart except for the rare occasions that is the only medium that will work. I guarantee your students will come alive . Check out the previously mentioned PowerPoint for more.
