Educational Technology:

Enter the 21st Century

From the Sedgwick Technology Committee

CSI Spring Series 2006
 

   
Objective:  All participants will complete one common technology-infused activity/lesson for use by your department/grade level.

Day 1:  By the end of the first session, you should have a basic lesson overview and know what resources you will need to be successful.  Fill out the "What I Need..." form and return it to the sign-out table at four-corners before you leave today.

Day 2:  At the end of the third session, you will be able to walk into your classroom and deliver your activity/lesson utilizing the appropriate technologies.
