1st+Interactive+Meeting+Agenda

AGENDA ITEMS TO DETERMINE: Think about our purpose and objective - to integrate more technology in the classroom for teaching and learning. For our first meeting, I suggest we determine where we are based on the STar Chart ratings, etc. We need to get to know each other and our backgrounds and levels of knowledge so we can learn from each other! Also, we should share what technology we have available in our classrooms and campuses, and what frustrations we encounter in using them. Please edit this page with your responses. ( Petra) Our STaR ratings are pretty low last year, 12 accross the board in all four areas. The one item that I absolutly love in my classroom is my elmo. Teaching math, it is so much easier to show students how charts and graphs work. (Betsy) Let's incorporate a self-survey of our own technology knowledge and use. We might include a list of those we can share with others (teach) and those with which we need support (learn). TENTATIVE AGENDA FORMAT: Self Survey Please complete the following by March 23 7:00 p.m. If you can finish it earlier, that would be great. Once all of us have filled it out, we can discuss these at our first meeting: Member: Elaine Device: Smartboard Use: Overhead & powerpoint Need Help? More interactive games to use as learning tool for any curriculum.  (Betsy) Will there be handouts for download so we can remember and use the interactive games in the classroom? (Elaine) Yes, we could do that. I have not heard back from Petra and I do not know if things got mixed up with the wiki page problem. (Petra) Elaine, I have sent you my email again, since I have not received an invite to your wiki yet. I will continue checking my email.
