Student E-books

I love the Cult of Pedagogy!  Thanks, Mindy Larew, for introducing me to it.  Here is a post about creating student e-books that I thought some of you might like and/or might like to pass on.  Here's another link with Earth Day ideas.  You are leaders in your schools--even more so now!

The Window is Open!

Our final three meetings this semester will be reading for each other, re-writing, formatting videos, and uploading work.  Laura will give a short presentation at the April 19th meeting about uploading your materials.  We should have additional tech support, and there is also a scanner for your use if you need one.

Here is the agenda for the April 19th meeting:

National Board Support Cohort

April 19, 2016

3:30-5:30

Bridgeport Middle School

1.    Presentation:  Laura Trent—uploading documents

2.    Whole group or small group work:  reading for your cohort members

3.    Scan and upload documents to your National Board account.  DO NOT SUBMIT yet.

4.    You may send a word document of your Component 2 or Component 3 writing to Joetta at any time.  Do not type your name on it; instead, use your candidate ID number.  She will forward it to an NBCT who will serve as a “blind reader.”

5.    For next meeting on April 19^th bring in one document you would like to upload.  Laura Trent will be helping us begin this process.  You may also bring documents you would like to scan.
