Instead of synchronous sessions the week before school we are offering you the ability to customize your own learning through <a href="http://www.goodhue.k12.mn.us/se3bin/clientgenie.cgi?schoolname=school242&statusFlag=goGenie&geniesite=224&myButton=g5plugin&db=g224_b2362">online teacher technology training.</a> Hopefully this will solve the following issues:<br /><ul><li>Not all training is essential or relevant to all teachers.</li><li>Having training done online you can do it at your own pace and in your own time.</li><li>From these sessions you will hopefully have products you can directly apply to your classroom.</li><li>The new ISTE NETS for teachers include a standard that all teachers will participate in online professional development.</li></ul>I will be available all summer to assist you with any questions you have and provide feedback along the way. In each training module I have included multiple ways you can contact me.<br /><br />We will be launching this formally on Wednesday, July 9th at 8:00 am in the Goodhue High School Lab and I will be available that morning as well as three days near the end of August to assist with any technology integration questions you might have.<br /><br />If you can't attend the session Wednesday in person you can view it here. I will be streaming the session live that morning and recording the session as well. After the session I will embed a video of the session on this blog.<br /><br /><embed flashvars="autoplay=false&brand=embed" width="400" height="320" allowfullscreen="true" allowscriptaccess="always" src="http://www.ustream.tv/flash/live/234411" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" /><a href="http://www.ustream.tv" style="padding:2px 0px 4px;width:400px;background:#FFFFFF;display:block;color:#000000;font-weight:normal;font-size:10px;text-decoration:underline;text-align:center;" target="_blank">TV Show hosted by Ustream</a></embed><br /><br /><embed width="400" height="266" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" flashvars="channel=#goodhue-technology-integrati&server=chat1.ustream.tv" pluginspage="http://www.adobe.com/go/getflashplayer" src="http://www.ustream.tv/IrcClient.swf" allowfullscreen="true" /></embed><br /><br />-CarlCarl Andersonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07539544230024970483noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7771227363508550049.post-60617152390118532882008-05-07T05:52:00.000-07:002008-05-07T06:07:23.821-07:00May - June Technology Training SessionsFor May and the first week of June the following technology training sessions will be offered:<br /><br /><ul><li><span style="font-weight: bold;">May 8th 7:30-8:00</span> - <a href="http://www.openoffice.org/">Open Office</a> - Next year we will be switching from Microsoft Office to Open Office.
