    Seesaw for assessment

    IXL for more engaging and meaningful math practice (compared to the math boxes out of our journals)

    iPad cart is being used way more! 

    Because of tech classes my students can do way more with tech/content
     - we were able to use Chatterpix for summarizing stories with ease because they were already taught how to use it! ]]>     2018-03-13 20:33:36 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241621845     EVERYONE (teacher) is using their laptop https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241621930 Teachers are being more open to technology ideas in their classrooms 
    Many teachers are using Seesaw
    Most teachers are using Google Drive now instead of Microsoft Office for things ]]>     2018-03-13 20:33:50 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241621930     Teachers seem to be using a lot of different apps and tools to integrate technology in their classes. shannon_arens https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241622284 Teams are great resources to one another and I feel like we have created a culture where teachers do share / show / teach excellent resources. 
    STEAM / Computer Applications / STEM are making big changes in curriculum/content offering our students.
    Using technology more to give every student a voice / make sure 100% are actively engaged.

    This is good because it's creating a "need to create" among educators.]]>     2018-03-13 20:36:14 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241622855     https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241622900 Everyone seems excited about Seesaw and/or using it. 
    Everyone has used the new iPad cart in some way. 
    Everyone seems to understand and enjoy most SmartTV functions. 
    I have gotten more staff to participate in allowing me to tech coach them! :)]]>     2018-03-13 20:36:22 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241622900     We had a afternoon dedicated to technology sessions during one of our building professional development days. https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241623050 2018-03-13 20:36:47 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241623050 From Annie JBurling https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241623071
    1) My team loves that the administrative team is willing to listen to our needs and do what is best for us and our students at this level.
    2) K team is very happy with the outcome of splitting up the iPad carts and dispersing the iPads into our rooms.
    3) Many compliments on Luke and Ian for always being very quick and kind when problems do arise. (work orders)
    4) The like having a "Go-To" person at grade level
    5) Best quote so far this year to me, "The technology team is on their game this year. It has been incredible!"

They created assessments for all of their units. Seems like little growth for some, but this was BIG!!!

It is now a part of the 8th grade routine that Google Classroom is the means in which information is shared and lessons are taught. 

    I have also seen teachers have a lot of success using FlipGrid as a form of formative assessment. For example one of my tech coachees had students film a 90 second video summarizing what they have learned in health so far this year that was then shared during conferences. Awesome and innovative!]]>     2018-03-14 15:37:24 UTC https://padlet.com/JBurling/65q66ghoq0bj/wish/241946413
