Don’t forget to fill it out with your info to start collaborating today!

Roundtable Purpose:

To ensure that EVERYONE is empowered by personalized learning environments, and not only those who have access to the latest and greatest tools. 

We cannot ensure that we are meeting the needs of all of our students and teachers if we do not have access and equity for technology, professional development, and the structures that empower ownership of learning.

Roundtable Audience:

1. Teachers and leaders who are interested in ensuring that all students and teachers have access to the right educational tools to support personalized learning environments. 

2. Teachers and leaders interested in implementing BYOD or 1:1 programs (or some combination of both) in order to increase student engagement and achievement.

What I'm Using: Free (amazing) Video Stock Footage

I really had no idea that there was this great treasure trove of wonderful stock footage for video projects. There are tons of things that could be used in the classroom or for educational remixing. Let me know if you are using them for any digital storytelling projects, as well. I’m always game to see great examples of that.

Download Free HD Stock Footage · XStockvideo.com

In this video podcast, I talk about how we might think about teachers as a huge asset for crowdsourcing solutions, rather than a liability for change.

How do you think we can make this shift when we talk about teachers and teaching.
