About the Workshop

Greetings! If you are visiting this site, you must have an interest in my content, either because you are in the workshop, or you want to be a catalyst for integrating technology in your school in a more authentic manner.  My focus for this workshop is to overview some of the basic technology available at the K-12 level, and demonstrate how the library media specialist can help teachers and students utilize it to enhance learning and demonstrate knowledge. 

The workshop spans three days, meeting daily in the morning from 8:30-11:30, breaking for lunch, and then finishing in the afternoon from 12:30-3:30.  Here is an overview of what we will be discussing:
