The April District Board meeting was held last night at Elda Elementary. There were many important topics covered during the evening, however my favorite presentation happened to be the 'Technology Showcase' for Elda Elementary. Mrs. Johnsen (Elda Principal) wanted to make sure that all of the fantastic technology integration happening throughout the building did not go unnoticed. So, I put a presentation together showcasing a sampling of the innovative ways our staff uses technology with students everyday. The actual presentation at the meeting consisted of the slide show, a demonstration of CCI/Pro-Ohio and some commentary from me! Our board members were asked to take a 3 question quiz from Pro-Ohio on 4th grade math using the clickers. They did great! It provided the perfect opportunity to explain how we use the clickers and Pro-Ohio software in the classrooms. Of course, no technology presentation would be complete with out its share of glitches. The laptop crashed part way through! The audience was very patient and we were up and running again in no time. That just goes to show that 'technical difficulties' can happen to anyone! Overall, the presentation was a success! The board seemed pleased with the information and as always, the Elda staff looked great!
The slide show will be uploaded and linked below for your viewing pleasure shortly. You might notice the theme of 'In their own words' as the show progresses. My idea was to get the information straight from the people who use it most; the teachers and students. Make sure you have the volume turned up on your computer. You won't want to miss the audio!
