Meeting 2 - January 9

Julie would like 7th grade students to video the multi-cultural booth.  She is trying to figure out how to make this work using a certain piece of technology.  She's decided to use iMovie on the iPad and import the video into the 7th grade e-portfolio for student led conferences in March.

Are paper/pencil tests going out?  Our students prefer the paper/pencil tests for the higher level assessments but are diving into technology to show projects/presentations.  Megan found a great link to on-line portfolio assessment (it is geared to individual classroom portfolios).  http://faculty.pepperdine.edu/mriel/edc664/demo.html

How do we use technology to show what our students are learning?  Lots of ways.  We use videos, google options (sites, docs, presentations, spreadsheets), a variety of iPad apps, PowerPoint, Prezi, etc.

http://www.iste.org/docs/learning-and-leading-docs/nets-s-standards is another helpful resource that outlines the need for digital skills.
