When asked “What was the best part of our September 21, 2012 District TECH Day?” you replied:

  • Learning and then creating!
  • Having time to work on something I really needed to learn and do.
  • Having time to work on applying the skills to real teaching and learning going on with my students and colleagues.
  • I appreciate having been given some time to explore technology and to learn something new.
  • Collaboration, time for hands on application of what was taught.
  • Learning about technology pieces or programs that I can use right away with my students.
  • Getting time to try and play with what I was learning.
  • The chance to work with others and seeing the expertise in our division. It was a successful day in terms of implementing the PD you were learning.
  • The variety of sessions, and the time given to practice what we were learning.
  • Feeling inspired and able to apply my learning right away.
  • Learning something I can use in my classroom next week!
  • An opportunity to learn more from our colleagues.
  • I can take what I learned today and apply it immediately!  Loved it!
