I was pleased to attend the librarian and technology teachers inservice today at Craigmont Middle School. The day started with Bill Bailey , Education Services Manager of the Commercial Appeal. He explained all the wonderful features that will be available at the city’s newspaper as it is going Web 2.0. They have exciting changes that are taking place. I look forward to posting new and exciting things from them here on my blog. It only got better from there. Teachers got to choose from break out sessions that covered everything from Web 2.0 tools to Discovery Learning to expectations of tech teachers. The attendees seemed electrified, charged up, and ready to get their year started with educational technology. I presented with my tech camp friends, LeAnn Dowty and Laura Hanna Smith. We talked about what we were doing with what we learned at Tech Camp in June. Presenting allowed me to confirm what I will be teaching this school year. And I so enjoyed what LeAnn and Laura have done. They inspired all of us. I believe there is just as much knowledge gained from teaching as there is in being taught. So I can honestly say that no one left there more super charged than I did. I believe that the group of teachers at the inservice are going to take the world by storm.

I was so hyper after last week’s in-service! My brain was in overdrive. I thoroughly enjoyed collaborating with you and Laura. I hope we can do it again sometime. Your enthusiasm is inspiring!
