We're on our way to TIE and we hope to learn:

At TIE, we attended sessions on (give a couple of sentences for each session by each member. You do not all need to attend the same session, however if you do attend the same session then work together for a single response) : Andrew Melchoir || Promethean Instruction That Works Promethean/Activ Boards - Basics and Up || We attended two Promethean classes at TIE and a class that focused on how clickers can be used to enhance instruction and provide data. Both Promethean classes focused on ideas for instrucution and demonstrated the software ActivStudio and ActivInspire. Promethean Planet, the supporting website, was also used in these classes. We learned how to use this website as a resource for learning and supporting Promethean in the classroom. || Andrew Melchoir || Wiki Pages Quick and Easy Wiki's for classroom use || We attended Wiki page classes that focused on how to use a Wiki page as a classroom communication resource. A Wiki is a wonderful resource to enhance communication and allow collaboration between parents, teachers, and students. Wiki spaces can also assist with team building and collaboration within committees and grade-level teams. || Andrew Melchoir || Using clickers in your classroom Make Clickers work for you || We learned how to engage students in learning and sharing with the use of clickers. The use of clickers with interactive boards provides valuable feedback from students. we learned how to integrate the use of clickers in lessons - posted is a lesson I generated for 8th grade math for the "Smart Board" with the use of clickers ||
