Upstate Technology Conference 2015

Each summer, Greenville County Schools hosts UTC at Wade Hampton High. This was my third year attending, and I enjoyed presenting with others from Anderson One and making some new contacts over the course of our two days at #2015UTC. It was also exciting to meet some of my Tweeps in person! Here is a quick look at what was shared during my sessions...

Turning the Tables
Flipping the idea of an expert panel, in this session our Anderson One Instructional Tech team provided a list of questions and issues for the room to discuss. As a facilitator of this session, I left with a lot of new ideas and friends to follow. The small group setting, with a handful of people sharing each day, encouraged an authentic and interactive discussion in which everyone was able to participate!




Documenting the Journey with Flipboard
In this solo session, I shared how I combined Twitter and Flipboard to create a "Year in Review" magazine to document and highlight the amazing things happening with 1:1 technology in my area during the 2014-2015 school year. Check out the resources in the Thinglink below:




Flipping Out in Math
My good friend Melissa Wilcox and I shared some helpful tools and tips for flipping instruction in elementary and middle school Math. There was also time to share some excellent Math resources. Feel free to interact with the Thinglink here!



Discover. Transform. Excel. @ PD
Reflecting on our first year going 1:1 with iPads, our Anderson One Instructional Technology team shared the variety of professional development opportunities we've offered to support or teachers and administrators. Looking at our presentation, I am so proud of the things our team accomplished this year, and I look forward to creating new and exciting learning opportunities for Anderson One teachers next year!
