In April, I had the amazing opportunity to be a part of the Everything's Intermediate Virtual Teaching Expo sponsored by Teaching Blog Addict and Teacher's Notebook. During my presentation, I had the opportunity to share with you how to effectively integrate technology into your classroom and introduced you to a dozen or so free webtools. I also provided actual examples of my students' creations.
Now, the presentation is available on Teacher's Notebook for only $3.95. Yes, $3.95! Once you have viewed the presentation, feel free to question or comment {here}.
Thank you so much for participating in the Everything's Intermediate Virtual Teaching Expo. I hope you learned as much as I did. I thank Teaching Blog Addict, Teacher's Notebook, and Virtual Teaching Expo for the special opportunity to present to you. It is not too late to participate in the Virtual Teaching Expo. You can always purchase a ticket to attend at your own convenience. {Click here} for details.
If it wasn't obvious, technology is my passion. There is a place in every classroom for technology integration. Students are engaged while learning 21st skills. You will reach students who are otherwise unmotivated through the use of technology. Throughout the presentation, I referred to a blog post I had written previously called "Rome Wasn't Built in a Day." You can read it by {clicking here}.
I can't wait to hear about technology integration in your classroom!
How do you integrate technology with your students?
What are your favorite websites and webtools to use?

Don't hesitate to ask me any questions about what you heard today or any other area of technology integration. Thank you again for attending the Virtual Teaching Expo. It has been a blast!

Teaching Blog Addict was one of the main reasons I got into blogging. While searching Facebook, I found their blog page. I was amazed at all the wonderful resources that where being shared by classroom teachers. We know that our best ideas come from other teachers because we know they are tried and true. Surely, I had ideas I could share, too. So, I began blogging.
Then, I had the amazing honor of becoming an author for Teaching Blog Addict! I simply share what I use in my classroom with their massive following. My ideas may not always be flamboyant or cute. However, I hope you get practical technology tips to use in your classroom.
Even better, Teaching Blog Addict now has a Pinterest profile. So, you Pinterest addicts can get all the greatest tips in your favorite spot!
If you haven't checked out Teaching Blog Addict, be sure to do that now! You won't be sorry!
