Saturday Afternoon

One of the Newspapers in Education reps is here and we are having about a 20 minute preso. Jeremy complimented all of us, not just those present, but all MDE's for the great people and educators we are.

This afternoon we have to play catch up. We will be spending an hour on the following: ICT, Telling Stories with Digital Images, and audio.

Sunday looks like Digital Video, Portfolios, Content Creation...

We are sitting through a presentation on Newspapers in Education...need I say more?
We need to be well versed in the program and the Herald Tribune. MDE's will do an elective session on this topic.
Check out eedition.heraldtribune.com for an idea. I think NY Times is available as well.

Please note that some of the writing here is for notes so I can remember what was discussed.

Gordon is ready to move on...I believe our topic is ICT (Information, Communication and Technology Skills)
Educators will be able to locate things on their computer, tagging, cite info, copyright, collaboration with wikis and blogs, and much more!

Adobe Reader tools- highlighting, quotes, etc. How to use a web browser search more effectively. How to use Edit>Find in the browser and locate key words on pages and in documents.

Web searches, include custom search for FCIT
