ISTE 2018



Wahoo! Heather Marrs & I have arrived at ISTE 2018!

Thanks to generous grants from Montana MCCE and the Education Foundation for BPS, I had the amazing opportunity to attend the 2018 ISTE Conference in Chicago this past summer. Attending ISTE was such an incredible time to connect with edtech teacher leaders from across our country, and learn from the best of the best. 

I especially enjoyed being a part of the first ever Seesaw Connect event, where I was able to learn about gamified classrooms from Heather Marrs, explore innovative PD options with Andy Lesier, and delve deeper into #BookSnaps with Tara Martin. It was amazing to meet so many teachers I had connected with via Twitter, and be able to share and learn one with one another in person. The Seesaw Connect Amazing Race was super fun, and I loved leading a job alike session with other tech integration specialists and coaches who use Seesaw. This event and helping out in the Seesaw booth at the ISTE Expo Hall were two definite highlights of my time in Chicago! I love that you can access the website to view resources from this amazing event, even if you couldn't attend in person! Such great stuff can be found at web.seesaw.me/connect/. Check it out!

I also really loved the educational playgrounds offered at ISTE. The playgrounds provided a chance to explore digital tools in a hands-on way, with teacher experts available to share ideas and answer questions. I explored at the digital storytelling playground, early learning network playground and Apple ADE playground. Some highlights were learning more (and meeting the creators of!) DoInk and Book Creator apps, as well as exploring amazing creativity tools with Apple Distinguished Educators.

Some presentations I really enjoyed were Goog-Smacked, with tons of ideas for using Google tools in your classrooms, and Who Wants to be an EduInnovator. This session was conducted in a fun game-show like format that was super engaging! Tony Vincent's emojis in education session was full (I ran late because ... pizza), but you can click here to see his awesome ideas!
Yum!!

It's also so amazing to have the chance to meet with edu-innovators that have created the awesome tools we use and love in our classrooms! Spending time chatting with Seesaw creators and staff over pizza at Giordano's was amazing. We loved attending events hosted by Nearpod, Adobe, Quizlet, and EdPuzzle - all some of our favorite tools! It's inspiring to hear their stories, and how they made their dreams into a product now used by thousands of teachers & students to make learning better! I also loved meeting some friends in real life that I have been sharing ideas and learning from on Twitter and Instagram. So fun to meet you in person!

If you have an opportunity to attend a conference like ISTE, I encourage you to take it! And if the opportunities aren't falling into your lap, seek them out! Ask your administrator, look for grants like the ones I received through MCCE and the Education Foundation, or post a request on sites like Donors Choose! Connecting with other educators to share ideas and learn from one another is so powerful and rejuvenating! I am excited and ready for the 2018-19 school year to begin! (Now, please enjoy these pictures of the Best Doughnuts I Have Ever Eaten.)

Microsoft Office 2019 At the Microsoft Innovation Show held by Microsoft on 28 September in Orlando, Florida, Microsoft introduced the next generation of office suites, Office 2019.

Then open the mail to click on the link to confirm the completion of the VPS registration. II. PAY Signing up for an account is simple, but buying a VPS is another thing, because Vietnam is often "scrutinized" very carefully because of using tricks to create multiple accounts to receive more promotions. If the correct information, you will be immediately transferred to the payment interface. Vultr supports payment via Credit Card (Visa / Master) and Paypal. If I use Techcombank's Visa card to register without any difficulty, do not try to create multiple accounts to prevent mass block. You will be charged $ 1 to verify the bank account will be refunded after completing registration. Enter the card information, note the minimum deposit amount is $ 5.
