This has been an exciting and tumultuous year in a new
position within a totally different school district. So, why start
blogging during the last week of the school year? Much of this year's experiences have been a huge learning
curve. From working within a larger
school system, my knowledge base about instruction and learning has increased exponentially. Since
most of my previous experience was from working within small school systems or
with small groups of individuals, the strategies and tools that were used in
the past no longer were as successful in a more diversified setting. It
is time to develop new tactics and create better approaches to reaching out to
teachers about the importance of transforming their classrooms with
technology. Therefore, so begins a new
blog, a resource, a tool, from which to share information and prepare for a new beginning in 2013-14.
“There can be infinite uses of the computer and of new age technology, but if teachers themselves are not able to bring it into the classroom and make it work, then it fails.” - Nancy Kassebaum
