Today you'll be working with three Google Certified Teachers:
- Rushton Hurley, Santa Clara, California (rushton@gmail.com)
- Ken Shelton, Los Angeles, California (chocxtc@gmail.com)
- Christine Archer-Davidson, Aurora, Colorado (carcherdavison@gmail.com)
I should note that there are GCT's who come from states that start with letters other than 'C'.
Why are we doing this today?
Let's get a little background:
GWE Welcome Sioux Falls SD Feb 2010Google Workshop for Educators - GWE Welcome Sioux Falls SD Feb 2010
Welcome Activity:
Follow the instructions below to complete the activity... and make an innovation connection!
- Think of the best example of innovation in education that you can.
For this exercise, the innovation should not involve computers,
gadgets, or anything "techie." The example doesn't need to be something
you've done yourself. Perhaps it's something one of your teachers did
when you were a student or something you've seen one of your colleagues
(or heroes) do. Think fast, and prepare to share. You have about two
minutes.
- Pair up with one of your teammates and share your example.
When one partner is sharing, the other can ask a question, but
shouldn't "take over" the conversation. You will have one minute each
to share your example and any story behind it (for a total of two
minutes together).
- Be prepared to share your example. We'll move quickly.
