July 12-16: BONUS Experience-ADE Institute 2010


July 12-16: BONUS Experience
I attended the Apple Distinguished educator Summer Institute. During this professional development experience, I worked with a number of Library Media professionals, ranging from District coordinators, to school library and media specialists on projects concerning ways to integrate technologies into school libraries and classrooms. I also worked in a collaborative setting to create a video resources and presentation that addresses reasons why to create a more personalized learning environment, involving the integration of technology into an educational setting (see attached video and presentation). I also interviewed 3 professionals working in Libraries and media settings concerning their experiences concerning a typical day in their position, the issues they face, as well as changes they predict in the next 5 years. (See attached podcast of these interviews I created.) Overall, this experience was amazing, the innovation of the professionals I have worked with really is significant for also exploring the potentialPre- uses of technology, school libraries as well as 1:1 learning environments- something I am interested in for implementing in my own classroom.
