On Monday and Tuesday I attended the 2013 TIES (Technology and Information Education Services) Conference. This is an annual education technology conference that I look forward to attending every year. I find it energizing to hear what other innovative teachers are trying. It sparks new ideas for me to return and try with our OHE students!!!
Tuesday's Keynote Speaker -
Mizuko Ito, cultural anthropologist
My favorite presentation of the entire conference was a presentation by Ben Friesen, Digital Content Specialist (below) for Hopkins Public School. I walked away with lots of new lesson ideas, apps and websites that I can't wait to show our students!!
I really enjoyed Gadget Girl - Leslie Fisher (below) who showed off all the latest technology and it's potential use in the classroom.
My media collegues Paula Hansen and Randy Schlede (below) preparing for the next session!
