Chatting with educators
On #Edchat this evening, the topic was about motivating teachers to use technology in the classroom. This is near and dear to me, and I wrote an article about it in 2005. I have since retired, but I was a technology coordinator and later AP at Our Lady of Mt. Carmel in Baltimore. Along with Diane Fitzpatrick, I developed a training program that incorporated incentives. You can read about it here.
There were plenty of great tweets about the issue. Some themes included making sure the technology does not drive the curriculum, the importance of modeling, and taking a gentle approach.
