CCSD Instructional Tech UPDATE 6/17
TECHNOLOGY RESOURCES and INFORMATION
CCSD SAMR Resources K-12 are now available for your reference!
As promised, after the building principals reviewed the SAMR documents submitted on our staff development day, I organized all of the content by discipline/grade levels. In addition, I have added additional FREE resources to each document. All of this content has been organized into one K-12 FOLDER: SAMR TECH RESOURCES (recently shared with all staff).
YOU MAY ALSO CLICK HERE FOR FOLDER ACCESS:

The goal was/is to share lesson plan ideas and tech tools with our colleagues. The staff contact provides a Go-To-Person to learn more about the information shared. We have a creative group of educators using technology to improve teaching and learning. As we move forward with our 1-1 initiative and Smart Schools Bond monies, using the technology capably is an expectation.
You are encouraged to peruse all of the documents at your leisure to learn from our peers as we prepare for the 2017-18 school year!
BROCHURES in GOOGLE DOCS (instead of Publisher)
A big shout out to Mrs. Dunbar's 7th grade Tech/PBL students who created brochures on bridges before building in their engineering unit (pictured here).
CODING ANYONE?
There are a variety of websites and tools out there to explore coding with our students. However, Chrome has recently published CODING WITH CHROME (http://codingwithchrome.foo/) to facilitate coding on Chromebooks. Roger has exported this app to grade 8 students. If you are interested in experimenting, download from the Chrome store or request it to be added for you!

Remember: We have access to a great number of apps via the Google Chrome Store. If you find one that you like, you may request it be added to our domain from Roger. He has been very quick to respond to several requests this year!
Promethean Boards to Replace Smart Boards! Check it out before September!

We will all be learning how to use this incredible tool together!
Thank you to those who made time to come to the demo/training earlier in the year!
Have a great summer!
TECH SUPPORT OPTIONS
There will be a few tech PD sessions on Google Classroom offered the week before school begins if interested. Check school email in August for more information!
In addition to the NEW SAMR folder of CCSD teacher-shared resources/lesson plans, there is a folder on DRIVE that has been created/modified over the last 2 years. (Search Tech Resources in Drive. There is one for HS and one for ELEM/MS.)
