Thank you to Candace, Upper School Librarian, for sharing this innovation with me. I think that we need to order one of these for the Lower School for next year. Students would be much more engaged in learning if […]

Thanks for the comment. I used that questionnaire with the students in Google Forms. They answered the questions for homework and then I graphed the results. We had in-depth conversations on what they thought the […]
Nancy Gorneau commented on the post, A Split Decision, on the site The Leap 2 months, 3 weeks ago

“By the time we figure out how to use something it’s been changed, updated, or scrapped. I’m just falling behind at a faster rate.”

We have all felt that way at one point in time but the “skills” you are […]

I started my first lesson on Cyberbullying with 5th grade. The students went to my blog and posted a sticky using Wallwisher telling what they think cyberbullying is.

Once they posted they refreshed the wall […]

Nancy Gorneau wrote a new blog post: Final Project – Supplementals 7 months, 3 weeks ago

Creating supplemental materials is going to be my focus. I plan to work with Kathy and create matrials that can be used by parents to support their children, students who were absent, and teachers who want to do the lesson in their own room. and I cannot forsee being able to flip the classroom in grades 3-5 technology [...]
Nancy Gorneau wrote a new blog post: iPads, my internal debate continues 7 months, 3 weeks ago

Computer Lab on PhotoPeach I loved the ease of using PhotoPeach to create a quick slideshow of my students. With the idea that we will be using iPads in the kindergarten classroom in the near future, I emailed Kim Cofino ( Always Learning ) who works at Yokohama International School in Japan to ask what they were doing with [...]
Nancy Gorneau wrote a new blog post: Empathic Civilisation 7 months, 4 weeks ago

As I was watching the Dan Pink: Drive video I was side tracked by the other RSA Animates on the sidebar. I was not motivated to stick with the video so I clicked on one Animate that caught my attention as we, the LS, are discussing Moral Intelligence , Character Education and Michele Borba, the author of the book. Empathic Civilisation , by…[Read more]

Nancy Gorneau commented on the blog post Successful Technology Integration: From Outside or Within? 8 months ago

Becky, I agree with your comment that the IT coordinator helps guide the integration and I believe that they are following the NETS to help infuse the necessary skills to teach the technology tool that will be most effective for both teacher and learner.
Nancy Gorneau commented on the blog post Working in the Cloud 8 months ago

I agree that the cloud makes our lives easier and much more portable. I love the fact that I can take a photo and save it to my dropbox account that I have shared with others and they can quickly manipulate and remix it uploading it to their own blog or in their document. I [...]
Nancy Gorneau commented on the blog post NETS 8 months ago

I agree it is everyone’s responsibility to teach the NETS and the skills needed for students to engage in technology adventures. As you said technologies change quickly and we all must adapt to these changes. The icon for Save is a floppy disk and today’s students have never even seen one. While the hardware is [...]
Nancy Gorneau wrote a new blog post: iPads in Kindergarten 8 months, 1 week ago

I wonder what is better: hiring teachers who are competent to engage our students in learning or buying online programs and technology tools to do it instead? Study Island “Long Branch Public Schools bought Study Island as part of its standards-based instruction initiative and for its programs aimed at helping ELL and special education students.”…[Read more]
Nancy Gorneau wrote a new blog post: The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) 8 months, 1 week ago

The Technology Integration Matrix (TIM) created by the Florida Center for Instructional Technology is similar to the one that I recently discovered on Arizona’s K12 Center . Returning to Arizona’s site I did see the fine print stating it was adapted from Florida’s TIM. I watched some of the videos that were created by Florida teachers to support the [...]

Commenting on What Difference Might One “S” Make by David Warlick What age group is Warlick referring to? I agree that we cannot possibly teach today’s students the technology of their future and we need to teach them to think and understand how technology works. Technology IS a tool but like every tool it does need to [...]
