Welcome Back LVMS Staffulty!

"Assignment" # 1: 

Help!  The blog needs a name... feel free to play on words like "tech" or "one to one," etc. or our school's name.  Suggest as many as you'd like by completing the Google form below.  You can always return later and add more at any time (just fyi, your suggestions will be seen only by me).

(SUGGESTIONS ARE CLOSED)

Bright Ideas?

"Assignment" # 2:  Reply to this blog posting.

Hey Everyone!  My hope in maintaining this blog is to provide a spot for news, ideas, tutorials... and for teachers to share ideas and reflect on ed tech as we move toward becoming a 1:1 school.

We're all so busy that we often only hear about what another teacher is doing through the long grapevine that crawls through the great hallways of LVMS.

Also, sometimes as teachers we hear of a really cool idea or online software or website that we'd love to try sometime -- but not until we have the time, energy, and sometimes, courage to try it.  And by the time all those things fall into place, we've forgotten what that link or idea was (or maybe even that there WAS a cool idea!).

A blog space that everyone can contribute ideas to (but I'll maintain it for simplicity) and where teacher Best Practices and ideas can not only be shared but showcased is the goal.


But I need your help to get started...

Your assignment:  Please reply to this post (by clicking on the COMMENTS link beneath this post) with suggestions and ideas for how the site can be best used & set up.   In what ways would you like to see this blog used?  Teacher sharing of ideas & best practices relating to ed tech for learning?  Posting of tutorials?  Teacher reflection (guest bloggers)? Posting of teachers using tech in their classrooms (teacher pictures optional :)   )?  Videos of teachers demonstrating lessons using ed tech to help reach learning goals?  Tech Teacher of the Month?  Cool "tools"?...
