We are about ready to start with Minds on Media – I am hoping to write a new post for each table I sit at. The first session will be ArcGIS – mapping and Geography with Peter McAsh. Think I have this blog worked out – will be using my lap top and my phone for instagram photos that get uploaded to the blog automatically.
Also trying out a new blog which is driving me a little crazy right now!
Now the speakers are being intoduced here is a quick summary of the topics:
media literacy
internet radio that can be run by students
programming
mapping – the next level
creation apps
Mind Craft – playing between schools
make your own music using ios etc
open source programming tools
teaching math through problem solving- capturing student thinking through technology
building a PLN
The philosophy of the day – You are in charge of your learning today. the participants will bring their needs at each center, leave and move around when you need to. Move on and get up and move to the next spot when you are ready. A little like an unconference! Off we go!!
