Our last session of TLP-C will be this week on Thursday, June 12th from 4-5pm EST. This will be a very special meeting since we will be joined by Dr. Elizabeth Hoover, Chief Technology Officer for ACPS. She will share a few words about technology education. We will then have a lightning round of digital tool sharing!
Everyone who is able will share a tool they love and brag about why it is so much fun to use and the impact it has on student learning. We will have one slide per tool with the title and a URL with more information. It will be super fun to hear about more digital tools and to get some great ideas to investigate over the summer!
We hope you can join us!
I found this an interesting way to end the year! As people were commenting during the session, these are ideas we can definitely look into over the summer. I think this might even be a great way to kick off a new year with a few ideas for teachers.
I agree with Erin, that was an interesting way to ‘wrap up’. It allowed folks to briefly share more uses of technology that we can explore more over the summer. Thank you to everyone for sharing! I look forward to using what I have learned next year, whether I’m in elementary OR middle school!
I very much enjoyed the last session listening to a round up of the favorite technologies used. Mrs. Story introduced me to Nearpod. I very much like it because of its interactive and engaging nature. It is very good for quick reviews, exit tickets and pre-assessment. I like it a lot.
I used Explorelearning a lot this year with my physics and chemistry students it allowed me to differentiate while engaging the students in real inquiries. Apart from carrying out virtual investigations using the gizmo, students can use the screen capture tool, take pictures of their data, paste on word document and write about the the data and conclusion. Hence integrating writing.
