Attention Greensburg Pirate Educators!
October is
Connected Educator Month!
Interested in meaningful, collaborative, and entertaining EdTech PD? Here are just a few upcoming opportunities to consider.
You can bookmark the calendar
here
The first set of opportunities will focus on what the SAMR model is and why it will help navigate the technology integration seas with greater comfort and confidence.
Matt Miller is a Hoosier Spanish Teacher with an amazing blog illustrating his experience exploring how best to integrate technology into his class and curriculum. His post regarding his
first exposure to the SAMR model is a good primer for what we'll explore throughout those opportunities.
All of the opportunities are voluntary and you can stay as long as you like. The TechTime sessions after school are open to anybody from any building. We will rotate the host building with each session so be sure to check the details of the event!
This is a very exciting year but I have found myself repeating a saying that I heard at a conference, and that is, "when eating an elephant you still do it one bite at a time". To put a a movie reference with it, I am reminded of
"The Old 96er" from
The Great Outdoors. I do love a good comedy.
Regardless of the reference the mindset applies to the daunting task ahead of us, and together we'll take it one bite at a time.
