Making a Pitstop

With Spring Break quickly approaching, I started this session by sharing a collection of travel apps. Sharing ways that technology can be useful in their personal lives beyond the classroom is one way to help my teachers become more comfortable and confident with using technology!

I also shared Typorama, which is an excellent tool for creating infopics. It is also very easy to use... which is always a plus!

Next, teachers were able to post their questions onto a Padlet wall to get us started. This was a great launchpad for Q&A, and it helped for everyone to be able to see the questions posted by others. I also created the wall below to summarize what was learned during each session.

I love the variety of questions asked, ideas shared, and resources found! Below is the Slides presentation used during the session.
