3. Brush off what you don’t want, pick up what you want to keep. or just leave it on the ground… My goal here today is simple…. I want you to think of this presentation as “confetti”

4. MY MESSAGE “Born with a moderate hearing loss, I have always been at a disadvantage by society’s terms of hearing. Fitted with hearing aids at the age of thirty years old, I made a conscious effort to use my disability as an advantage in my classroom.” “In essence, I feel that just as my hearing aids are tools which have helped compensate for my hearing loss, I believe computers are tools which help students meet individual academic needs and challenges.”

5. Obstacles are those frightful things you see when you take your eyes off your goal. Henry Ford

6. Part 1 Common Questions

7. 1. How do you find the time? 2. How can you implement GLE’s and still use technology? 3. How many computers do you have? 4. What software do you have? 5. How can “one computer classrooms” successfully implement technology? 6. What can be done to help those with no software?

8. Part II Classroom Technology

9. My Theory Like tapestry threads interlocking to create a certain pattern, educators can intertwine technology, state expectations and productive activities to produce remarkable results.

10. The key isn’t the number of computers in the classroom. It lies in how you m mm manage technology resources and lessons in the classroom.

11. To understand if you are integrating technology into your classroom in the truest form… ask yourself one question….
