CHS Staff Models Collaborative Learning

As educators, the CHS staff knows the importance of working together to grow as professionals.  Recently, we started hosting Tech Tuesdays for the staff to learn and grow with and from each other.  Each Tuesday a staff member presents some technology tool they use in their own classroom, sharing its benefits and applications with colleagues.  This model of learning from each other is a useful and practical way to ensure we are using the best practices in the classroom.

Here is a list of some of the topics covered in recent sessions: Pixton: An Online Comic Strip Maker for Use in the Classroom, 10 Tech Tools for Teaching Teenagers, Moodle: An Online Course Management System, and Museum Boxes.

In addition to Tech Tuesdays, several teachers have recently attended one of several Technology Conferences held in Toledo and Columbus.  All of this technology related professional development is geared toward making the leap toward 21st Century Learning.
