I’m still working on these, but it’s going well.<\/p>\n
Last year we instituted an in-house staff development where in-house people presented training before school. I lead several last year — one on behavior (because the principal was leading and he wanted someone else to do it), and one on technology.<\/p>\n
The technology one drove me nuts, because I’d prepare something, people would show and claim they new the subject and sign in.<\/p>\n
This year I changed the technology strand drastically. Instead of 6 weeks of a topic, now I do mini-ones. I also make them shorter, starting at 8:15 and ended at 8:40-8:45, but of course you’re welcome to stay and continue playing or come back later in the day for extra help.<\/p>\n
Today was the most successful. I advertised last Friday late — next time I’ll do a second advertisement then, I’ve already done the advertisement this week. I had 5 show up. They were all engaged, and two were not technology teachers. Also gave me time to "sell" the server. Something just instituted. <\/p>\n
Next week I’m doing Flckr and have invited people to bring an digital camera with a USB cable. Since it’s election day I thought I would go a little fun, and people do use Flckr for educational purposes. It is probably blocked by the district but I’ll see if I can’t get something done in the meantime.<\/p>\n
Some actually approached me and asked me for an Excel session, so what I think I’ll do is overview how I use Excel (not much), and give them the links to the tutorials I make my kids use.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
