Today we had almost 100% of our staff at the Iowa Technology Conference in Des Moines! ITEC is one of those inspiring and idea filled conferences that I have attended for many years. But, to have a Mid-Prairie person there each time you turned around was pretty cool! I hope people experienced new understandings and we have a chance to share those with one another.
We did have two presenters from our midst today...
Amber Bridge led a workshop called, "From Pilot to Flipcon12" about her journey flipping her 8th grade science classroom. She shared her findings comparing a pilot group and a test group, the tools she used and her vision for the future of her flipped science classroom.
I, Beth Swantz, also presented. My talk was, "Technology Mentorship." It was was a crowd sourcing workshop where we spent time creating a document sharing our common knowledge and helping one another. It was incredibly cool to see the document grow as the workshop progressed! Check it out here: iTech Mentoring. You can copy this URL and add it to your google docs to gain info - or even better yet - add your ideas to the doc. The power of mentoring to me is realizing that we all have so much to offer to one another!
Amber and I created a website that includes both of our presentations and other supporting details. Check it out
