EdCamp York coming March 24th

I am sharing information about EdCamp York being held on Saturday, March 24th at Dallastown Area Intermediate School. The event will run from 9 am to 1 pm. Doors will open at 8:15 for check-in and breakfast. EdCamps are great "free" opportunities to learn something you can take right back to your classroom. It's also a great opportunity to network with fellow educators in other districts. Lastly, there will be door prizes. I have included a flyer.

R2R Tech Camp Presentations - If you interested in presenting at R2R Tech Camp, the registration link is provided below.

I am now recruiting presenters for our R2R Tech Camp which will be held May 30, 31, and June 1. I am excited about the interest that has been expressed already by those who want to present. This is a great opportunity to have our own teachers present workshops showcasing what they are doing with technology. I am also excited because for each workshop that a person presents they will get a ticket to put their name into a drawing. I will be selecting one presenter to attend next year's PETE & C State Tech Conference held in Hershey, Pennsylvania.

If you are interested in presenting at the R2R Camp please complete the survey by clicking on the link that follows. https://goo.gl/forms/ltkREspTyfY5Qnc62

I will try to give you the date that you prefer for your workshop presentation based on your presentation registration, but obviously I can't offer them all on day one. I would like to have all workshop presentation registrations by Friday, March 16, 2018 at the end of the day. If you have a cool lesson using technology that you would like to share please register so others can benefit from your knowledge. If you are too nervous to present alone you can co-present with a fellow teacher who can share in the presentation, both of you will receive a ticket for the drawing.

Congratulations Gail!

Gail Anderson is a Health/PE teacher at CVIS. This year she is teaching all health classes. Gail is using Nearpod regularly with her classes. She used more sessions in the last two months then any other user in the district. Kudos to Gail for forging ahead and working to integrate Nearpod into her lessons! Gail received this t-shirt as her congratulations!

A New Wonderful Wheel on SAMR and Bloom's Digital Taxonomy

Thank you Kim Johnston-Smith for pointing out this new wheel from a recent Ed Technology and Mobile Learning blog. It shows very clearly the correlation between Bloom's Taxonomy and SAMR. I have also include the links to each of the tools listed on the wheel. In looking over the tools I was pleasantly surprised to see many that teachers at CVSD are already using.
