Coyotes Team Tech/PD (4.20.16)

1. Take Attendance

Use the CMS Tech Training Attendance sheet to mark your attendance today


2. Tech Show & Tell

One of the perks from attending a conference is learning about new tech tools, especially when the conference is ESStech at ESSDACK!

One session I attended was "If You Like This, Then You'll Love This!, led by Ginger Lewman. Ginger put together a spreadsheet of "old" tech tools (they're not really that old - keep on using them if they're truly your favorites) and collected suggestions for newer versions of those tools. I've made a copy of her spreadsheet for us to use here. It is editable, so feel free to add your own suggestions!

Two tools I'd like to look at more closely are Quizlet Live and Dotstorming.com! Here's a Quizlet Live tutorial for more infomation on setting up this review game.

Let's reflect on Quizlet Live using this Dotstorming board!

3. Our Challenge

As we start to wrap up this school year, it's important to keep providing our students with structure and closure. Matt Miller of ditchthattextbook.com writes here of ending his year with Epic Olympics. He uses tech and non-tech tools to review the most important concepts from the year. Maybe activities like Quizlet Live can help with this type of activity!

4. Feedback
