This presentation discusses the challenges of traditional school computing and introduces cloud computing and Google Apps as potential solutions. Some key challenges include incompatible software between student home computers and school computers, limited storage space and software licenses at school. Google Apps provides cloud-based alternatives to traditional office software that students can access from any internet-connected device, solving issues around compatibility and limited school resources. The presentation provides examples of schools using Google Apps successfully and quotes from educators on the benefits of moving to the cloud.
Invest in academic success with the Intel Celeron processor‑powered Dell Chro...Principled Technologies
Each of the teachers Principal Sanders spoke with today had nothing but good things to say about the new Dell Chromebooks. The classrooms themselves were full of students learning in new and exciting ways. The school’s Intel Celeron N3350 processor-powered Dell Chromebook 5190 devices have prevented long wait times and kept kids engaged in their work. In her next administrative meeting, Jamila will be sure to mention she believes the new technology has been a good investment for the school—and for her students’ education.

The contemporary classroom now contains a range of technology such as iPads, desktops, notebooks, interactive whiteboards, wireless connectivity to networks and the internet. Can that technology enhance positive behaviour characteristics and lessen the need for teachers to move into traditional models of behaviour management?
Cracking the 'Native' Information Experiencedwarlick
Change is constant!
..And today, change is happening in schools. Governance boards, administrators, librarians and classroom teachers are combining efforts to resist the conservative status-quo-sustaining nature of our institution and seeking to define and implement a new style of learning – learning 2.0.
For many of our students, change is status-quo. They’ve witnessed an emerging new information environment and have had a hand in shaping its landscape, seamlessly utilizing technologies that define their culture. The outside-the-classroom information experiences of our students are deep, diverse, rich, and compelling — and understanding these information experiences may be a key to achieving more effective and relevant formal learning.
Spend some time with David Warlick, exploring the qualities of the native information experience and observe how they might be — and are being harnessed in classrooms around the world.
Google Apps is free for schools and has no ads. It allows students and teachers to create documents(Word, Excel, PowerPoint), share calendars, email, chat, create web pages and more. It is secure as everything stays within the registered domain and cannot be accessed by people who do not have a school login. It is an excellent tool to provide elearning. It works on any computer including Macs.
Here are the results that the teachers of Goochland did to help me with my senior project. This is the Keynote Version. There is a PowerPoint version on my account too.

Reading Programme presentation I gave about my goals for merging reading and technology together. Ultimately teaching 11-12 years to learn to think to think to learn and embrace the rapidly changing forms of literacy around us. Not really an expert on the topic... just what I have seen work in my class.

2014-2015 ikasturtea berezia izango da Ordiziako Jakintza ikastolan. Berrikuntza guztien artean batek lotura zuzena du teknologiako arloarekin. Lanean hasi aurretik ikasleek zeintzuk diren irakaslearen helburuak, espektatibak eta asmoak ezagutzea garrantzitsua dela uste dut. Aurkezpen honetan horiek guztiak jasotzen saiatu naiz.
