Digital Learning Digest
Welcome Back from your FMS Digital Learning Coaches
What to Expect for the 2017-2018 School Year
Each month technology professional development will be offered during early release.
In addition, we will have Tech Thursdays. Every Thursday from 3:00-3:30 you will have an opportunity to get designated technology integration help.
For the month of September, Nate and Alicia will have open hours in their classroom. This is a time for you to stop in and ask questions or get support on anything you need related to technology integration. We anticipate September being a busy time with help needed for Schoology and Infinite Campus especially, so please utilize these times. Stop in to either classroom every Thursday in September from 3:00-3:30 for drop-in hours.
Starting in October-
1st Thursday- Technology PD in Alicia's Room-C106
2nd Thursday- Open Technology Integration help time in Nate's room-A134
3rd Thursday- Technology PD in in Nate's room- A134
4th Thursday-Open Technology Integration help time in Alicia's room-C106
Each 'Technology PD' will have a certain focus related to technology integration. Watch your email for more information on each months specific topic.
Once a month Alicia and Nate are available all day to work with you. We would love to meet with you during your prep or common planning time to brainstorm, support, teach, or just talk technology integration. If you are interested we would love to come to your classroom and co-teach with you on one of these days as well. Please email or talk with either of us so we can schedule in a time to work with you during the school day.
