Along with all of the other exciting things happening, I had an opportunity to work with one of our teachers who wanted to use technology in her classroom but needed some encouragement and instruction. We met one afternoon after school and set up her digital projector. We went through a few operational instructions and then looked at some resources she could use in the classroom.
The next day she e-mailed me with the message that she had used the projector with her first class and everything went well. She genuinely seemed excited and looking forward to continuing to integrate the technology into her lessons.
Later in the week, we also began working on a project with her students. I had put together some materials for us to use to introduce the project. During the first class, I modeled the introduction using the projector, a couple of PowerPoints that included pictures and video. When it was time for the next group of students to come in, she said she wanted to try introducing the lesson and using the materials herself. She successfully did it with much confidence!
These are the experiences that I look forward to having repeated time and time again.
