- - - having a good working relationship with the IT people and the librarians and the secretaries and the office ladies and the janitorial staff is vitally important, because they will be the ones to help you out every day.

- - - we are bridging the gap between the "old learnig ways" and the "new learning ways" - the old ways are pencil pen and paper, no real computer use, and lots of lecture and books. the new ways are technology based, revolve around computers , and are easily bored with the typical lecture-based classroom experience.


CPS can chart out answers (e.g. T/F or A/B/C)


Teachers can use copyrighted material if:
- it is used for educational materials
- it is in an acceptable amount
- it will not have a negative affect on the market (take $ from the author, etc)


- - - Copyright and Fair Use Handout

- - - Need to print out EALRs amd GLEs


EALRs and GLEs are really specific about what requirements need to be met - especially for technology in education.


- - - THINKFINITY (website to see lesson plans that match up to state standards)

- - - NETS (National Education Technology Standards)

- - - Fairy Use Tale (Utube video detailing fair use)

- - - Other national standards ("Education World")

- - - GLE and EALR handout

- - - NETS handout (about tech requirements before one can teach)

- - - Technology Use in Classrooms handout


Perhaps I need to learn how to use Utube, since my students surely will know how to use it, and use it potentially often
