A Chest of Digital Treasures!

This week I presented a short session at the Northwest ISD Technopalooza. It was great fun! Thank you Dave Burgess for the inspiration.   If a teacher did not walk away from those 2 days with a full bag of tricks and tips to use to better engage the digital native it is the teacher's own fault.  The conference was loaded with great sessions for the teachers.  Dr. Karla Burkholder, Rory Peacock, and the Instructional Technology Team did a great job.  I want to thank all that attended my session.  It is always amazing to me when my sessions are full, when the teachers actually take time out to listen to my ideas. I have posted a slide show (on the right) of much of my session.  Also, below you will find some websites we discussed.  Best of luck to all in the new school year!
