I did not do this yesterday as I did not have my software evaluation done at that time. Frankly learning all this new technology stuff frustrates me. So often I log in as a student and try see if a student can access some of this and it is blocked. Until Districts understand the usefulness of these technologies, we are at a standstill. Districts are so afraid of losing money for doing something wrong. I will slowing start using what is not blocked Wordle, pbwiki, and move forward from there. I just talked to a teacher about Voice Thread, so will see if we can get that opened up.
I have been pushing for over two years for more technology based lessons. Finally teachers are getting Promethean Boards and they are excited about technology. I need to feed off of that.
I have not done enough to help teachers forward into the unknown. I should be a leader. I don't know if I am afraid or what, I guess I think the teachers will expect more than I can provide and then I will feel worst about my self than I do now.
What is the worst that can happen?
