I do this too!! Available for coaching help or tech help. Every once in a while I get randomly invited into a class to teach tech! #techtalkga
Replying to @DrBurgessEdTech
Agreed! I am purposefully putting myself out in the schools more often this year, and I always set up shop for the day in the media center. Collaborating with the media specialist and supporting him/her for several hours is a wonderful thing! #TeamWork! #TECHTalkGA

A3: There needs to be more leadership classes and technology hardware instruction. Most smaller districts have a technology staff, and although our titles say “Instructional”, most of us still wrench in addition to instructional coaching. #TECHtalkGA

A5: we are in year 4 of a 1:1 iPad rollout. While it hasn’t been all roses and rainbows, it does serve our rural community and give our Ss a level playing field digitally upon graduation. So short answer yes- for sure. #TechTalkGA

A3: Agee however over the course of time (if done correctly) the digital gap decreases as the students mature. Digital Citizenship is a great place to start. #TechTalkGA

A2: student opportunities and engagement. Ss are digital natives. We need to overcome our tech insecurities and MEET them there. #TechTalkGA

I’ll add to this: Tech will highlight great teaching and also highlight poor classroom management. #techtalkga
#techtalkga A2: Tech is a tool, not a babysitter, not a crutch. Use it well, and you greatly expand what Ss can do in your class. Use it poorly, and it adds nothing.
