Tech School for RSU 67 Teachers
Simple technology for use in the MCL classroom
Join us (Dani & Heidi) for some or all sessions!
These low-key tech sessions will cover an array of topics to help you to integrate technology into your classroom. Our goal is to introduce you to some amazing tools and tricks that you can use with students the very next day. All of the things we share will be helpful as our district moves toward Proficiency Based Learning. We welcome everyone to the sessions, from beginner to advanced, EK-12, teachers and ed techs! Bring a laptop or mobile device. Contact hours will be awarded to attendees.
Some of our topics will include:
Sessions will meet once a month on Tuesdays from 3:00 pm- 4:30 pm at MJHS.

Who are we?
Sessions are led by Danielle Terrill (7th & 8th grade ELA teacher at MJHS) and Heidi Harris (7th grade Social Studies teacher at MJHS). We recently attended the Practical Ed Tech Summer Camp with EdTech guru Richard Byrne of Free Tech 4 Teachers fame. We have used these tools in our own classrooms, so you can hear first-hand how useful they are!
