This was another exciting week! After spending a few hours modifying my workshop agenda and PowerPoint, I finally gave my Face-to-Face workshop and it went very well. I had 10 volunteered elementary teachers participate in learning how to integrate the Web 2.0 Storybird as instructional technology. My presentation lasted 20 minutes which included purpose, educational benefits, statistics, standards-based, nets supported, student example, and ideas of lessons. A variety of teachers participated including: an Art teacher, a Media Specialist, a Technology teacher, and 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade teachers. It was a well-rounded group. The teachers were assessed by having to create a storybird on their own. They performed well and mentioned how user-friendly the website is. Before leaving the teachers filled out a survey answering a few questions on technology. The workshop lasted a total of an hour.
I also worked on the eportfolio checklist. I spent many hours searching for previous assignments to be embedded onto my website.
