10:30 AM - 11:45 AM
Room 101
TIME is a common challenge when individualizing instruction with hands-on activities. The concept of flipped classroom however, tackles this contributing factor by taking the teacher centered lecture from the classroom and opening it up to active learning in the classroom instead. Students learn at their own pace, resulting in more differentiated instruction opportunities in their classrooms. The session will focus on teachers developing lecture videos using PowerPoint, uploading to YouTube, and then using various virtual classroom platforms for student access. Desktop or laptops with headphones/microphone, PowerPoint (newest version) and internet accessibility will be needed. Teachers may also elect to provide their own devices such as Surface-Pro or 2 in 1 Laptop with windows ink capability. The workshop participants will learn how to develop a mini lecture video from PowerPoint and upload to YouTube for student access.

During this session, we'll share some common myths and realities surrounding Wi-Fi and what school districts should consider when evaluating WLAN technologies. We'll also discuss potential funding channels and how school districts can leverage the federal E-rate program to help procure digital learning-ready Wi-Fi for their campuses.

Wi-Fi is an incredibly powerful resource that connects our students and educators to today's diverse and global digital learning landscape. It is used in our schools, homes, libraries, and many of our public spaces. However, it is also an incredibly complex technology. Designing, deploying, and maintaining a successful WLAN is no easy task and unfortunately, simply adding more access points isn't the answer to delivering seamless and robust connectivity. During this session, we'll share some common myths and realities surrounding Wi-Fi and what school districts should consider when evaluating WLAN technologies. We'll also discuss potential funding channels and how school districts can leverage the federal E-rate program to help procure digital learning-ready Wi-Fi for their campuses.

8:30 AM - 10:00 AM

With this session you will learn how to integrate technology into not only Math and Science whole group lessons, but utilizing them for centers and quick checks. The apps that will be discussed are StopMotion, Paper53, Clips, FlipGrid and Quizizz. These can be utilized with whole group instruction, working in groups, or in bilingual or learning pairs. The StopMotion App will be used to create mini movies showing steps in a process or in sequential order such as a life cycle in Science or using manipulatives to illustrate the process of solving an equation in Math. Paper53 will be used to illustrate student products that may normally be done in a foldable and will be combined with Clips to create a movie allowing the students to explain what their sketches are and mean. FlipGrid will be demonstrated as an excellent tool that allows students to orally respond to a reflection question or open ended questions. Students can explain the problem solving process or a reflection to a science lab. This is a HUGE help with TELPAS speaking practice for ELL students. Finally, Ouizizz will be displayed as a tool to be used as a formal assessment or simply to check for understanding. With Quizizz you can create your own quizzes or search for some that have already been done by other educators. This wlill be an excellent closure to any lesson
