    Online Professional Development (audio) by Jeff Utecht

    Online Professional Development (audio) by Jeff Utecht
    In the past year we have seen a number of new free web tools used for online professional development. There are tools that can be used in the traditional sense as well as tools that are redefining how we learn in this connected network. In this presentation, we will take a look at some of the free tools that are now available to schools and educators to hold online professional development sessions. We will also push beyond Professional Development in the traditional sense and look at how these new network tools are being used by educators for “Just in Time Learning” and redefining how we learn from each other in a global network.

    Creating a Paradigm Shift in Technology (audio) by Shawn Nutting

    Creating a Paradigm Shift in Technology (audio) by Shawn Nutting
    What if you worked for a dream system? With a Superintendent & BOE whose focus is technology and professional development. Would it be a utopian and collaborative environment with teachers and students engaged with Web 2.0 tools? Not necessarily. Having open Internet access and a 1:1 computer initiative is not necessarily the key to engagement. A core cultural change must take place where students, teachers, administration and the community support technology in the curriculum. This presentation will share how we overcame many obstacles, created opportunities, and our current obstacles.

    Web 2.0 Share the Adventure (audio) by Sylvia Martinez

    Web 2.0 Share the Adventure (audio) by Sylvia Martinez
    For many teachers, Web 2.0 tools offer exciting opportunities for students to express themselves and take command of technology that stretches the mind and reaches outside school walls. For some teachers, these tools are like trying to take a drink of water from a fire hose – endlessly expanding into a bewildering array of choices. It’s a daunting task to figure out all the options with Web 2.0 tools and choose the “best” one to introduce to students. But why should you have all the fun!? Share your Learning Adventure 2.0 with your students and you will all benefit from the experience.

Also, philosophical issues of acceptable use will be discussed such as identity and transparency. Finally, practical suggestions will be shared to help every teacher and administrator.

    Building a Yardstick for PD Success: Establishing Key Performance Indicators for Web 2.0 Personal Optimized Learning Environments (audio) by Sharon Peters and Vincent Jansen
    With the emergence of Web 2.0 tools, we are seeing a shift in how schools may address teacher growth and development. As well as providing models of practice for measurement for today from self-directed professional growth and learning, we will present the Personal Optimized Learning Environment (POLE) framework for a new innovative measurement standard of professional growth. POLE utilizes collaborative tools in a blended environment with built-in metrics for monitoring performance improvement for each teacher over a continuum.

    Me blog? No Way!!! (audio) by John Pearce

    Me blog? No Way!!! (audio) by John Pearce
    Arguably blogging and the whole web 2.0 experience has been one of the most significant growth areas in the use of computers world wide. Indeed the opportunities that this environment offers to education seems endless. Why is it that there are far more teachers who are yet to explore this environment than those that have? Even worse why are some even actively shying away from using these tools. This presentation looks in a light hearted but serious way at some of the reasons used by the blog averse. Some counterpoints to such reasoning will be discussed in the presentation and participants will also be able to continue the discussion via a dedicated blog. Come on in and check out the characters involved and see if you have some of them at your place.

    Webcasting for Educators: Expanding the Conversation (audio) by Jen Wagner, Cheryl Oakes, Vicki Davis, and Sharon Peters

    Webcasting for Educators: Expanding the Conversation (audio) by Jen Wagner, Cheryl Oakes, Vicki Davis, and Sharon Peters
    The “women of web 2.0″ have webcasted more than 40 shows covering many topics of relevance to the K-16 educational arena. Using screencasts and video, see how four “ordinary” teachers create a weekly webcast with special guests on topics of relevance to the educational community. We will include snippets of some of our favourite shows and demonstrate the technical and logistical aspects of webcasting. Webcasting has great potential not just for personal learning opportunities for educators, but also for students at almost all levels to broadcast their own shows.

    The Technology Specialist as Teacher Leader: Strategies to Ensure Successful Technology Integration and Student Learning in Schools (audio) by Patrick Ledesma
    Successful technology integration in schools requires more than just advocating technology. Technology integration requires instructional understanding, administrative collaboration. and professional development. This knowledge must be combined with an understanding of student needs, school culture, and current education issues. Technology leadership is instructional leadership, and in his presentation Patrick will review strategies that help the technology specialist balance the numerous hardware, software, training, and instructional issues while keeping a focus on student impact.

    Crossing the Copyright Boundary in the Digital Age (audio) by Karen Richardson

    Crossing the Copyright Boundary in the Digital Age (audio) by Karen Richardson
    Copyright used to be only a problem to teachers as they tried to figure out what they could and could not use. Some just gave up and crossed their fingers. Multimedia projects loaded onto websites only made it worse because now it really did matter where you got it. Fortunately, just as the web has facilitated file sharing, it has also given birth to new ideas about copyright and how we can make the rules more user-friendly. This presentation will briefly review current copyright law, but it will focus primarily on a new trend called Creative Commons that puts power in the hands of both the creator and the consumer, who is, by the way, probably also a creator. The copyright boundary has been breached and teachers and students should be stepping through!

    Building Online Communities for Youth (audio) by Lee Baber and Paul Allison

    Building Online Communities for Youth (audio) by Lee Baber and Paul Allison
    Our examples for this presentation, Youthvoices and Personal Learning Space, are school-based social networking sites, a place online where our students share personal blogs, do research into topics of their own choosing, work with images, and develop profile pages that connect to other students from Canada, Brazil, USA, and other countries who are joining in. As students develop an online identity with maps, avatars/icons, interests, likes and dislikes, teachers and moderators of the space can facilitate communication and networking skills.

    Challenging Assumptions About Technology Professional Development (audio) by Sylvia Martinez

    Challenging Assumptions About Technology Professional Development (audio) by Sylvia Martinez
    Forty years after the invention of the personal computer, schools still find themselves begging teachers to introduce technology into classrooms. Conventional wisdom attributes the lack of effective technology use in classrooms to a shortage of, or poorly run professional development. At the same time, student-centered learning environments require teachers to develop more expertise not only in technology but also in pedagogy. Rather than continue to do more of the same, we should question assumptions and explore new models of teacher learning that address these issues.

    The Collaborative ABC Project: Using Technology To Tell Stories (audio) by Kevin Hodgson and Bonnie Kaplan

    The Collaborative ABC Project: Using Technology To Tell Stories (audio) by Kevin Hodgson and Bonnie Kaplan
    Our presentation (which will be a collaborative effort led by at least two presenters) will focus in on a collaborative digital storytelling project that brought together about a dozen teachers from the USA (and one from New Zealand) who used video technology to create a collaborative online ABC movie project. We intend to discuss how our project came to being from an inquiry approach and also to have participants take part in a smaller scale version of our ABC movie-book adventure. We will produce our presentation using a mixture of a blog, video examples, screencasts and podcasts. Our presentation will be online due to the nature of collaboration and may not have offline downloadable aspects to it.
