It focuses a lot on collaboration, and relationships. ]]> 2022-08-31 18:47:10 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278186482 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278189101 2022-08-31 18:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278189101 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278192780 This position allows me to wear many hats. I build and present many professional development modules focusing on AVID Schoolwide Implementation and Tech Utilization for the the benefit of student learning. ]]> 2022-08-31 18:52:35 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278192780 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278203377 As the AVID Coordinator in charge of Professional Development, I quickly found myself in the role of tech support for our staff. This did not mean hardware or software support like IT, but rather introducing and supporting Web 2.0 Applications for Education to our staff, as well as advocating for licenses to those applications that need approval or subscriptions. ]]> 2022-08-31 19:01:34 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278203377 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278205271 These Professional Development Modules focus on effective teaching strategies that can be used to help engage students in rigorous instruction. They usually include some sort of relational capacity component or collaboration. ]]> 2022-08-31 19:03:07 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278205271 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278212241 I personally find this technology plan to be unclear. The technology component seems like an afterthought, implying that innovation in education technology usage is not a priority at our schools. I would have to agree with this perception, as in our classrooms currently, we are just beginning to implement 1:1 computers, and many educators are still not comfortable using them in class. Additionally, we have found that many of our Web 2.0 applications are blocked, making access to these helpful tools close to impossible. ]]> 2022-08-31 19:09:05 UTC https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278212241 plb225 https://padlet.com/plb225/8ovjlgewo2p4mks9/wish/2278219438 I live in San Tan Valley, AZ
