Mark Your Calendar!

Coming soon to a school near you (Enochs High School in Modesto) is a fabulous technology conference you and your coworkers will want to attend. The ETC Conference on Saturday, March 1st is a great opportunity for you to share what you have learned as a TEC participant and pick up a few great technology tips to use with your students. For anyone who has not attended this conference, the format is simple and convenient. You will have 3-4 sessions where you can choose from a variety of topics presented by local educators. Currently, some of the session topics include:
  • Interactive Technologies for ELL Students.
  • Classroom Websites for Beginners
  • PowerPoint Flip Deck Animations
  • Google Earth in the Classroom
  • Blogs & Wikis - Writing Across the Curriculum
  • Free Classroom Resources for Math and Science
  • Grant Tips for Teachers
  • CLRN Offers FREE ELA and History / Social Studies Resources
  • And many more...
Due to the popularity of the ETC Conference, registration is limited and may fill up quickly. As a TEC participant your registration is included. However, if you have any friends or colleagues who would like to attend please let them know ASAP.

Happy blogging! See you next week!

What I Know Is...

According to The Acronym Finder, wiki means "What I Know Is..."
In an effort to promote sharing of the collective wisdom of this group, we have created the 2007 TEC wiki. (Don't worry about bookmarking this link, the tasty badge in the sidebar of this blog links to the wiki.) As part of the TEC project, you are being asked to created two lessons that integrate blogging and/or podcasting into your curriculum. Instead of asking you to create the lesson plans in a word processor, print them, and make enough copies for everyone; we thought this wiki would be a nice way to share. You each have a page in the wiki that you can use to post your lesson idea. Feel free to edit, adjust, and customize the wiki to match your personality and lesson ideas.
