Technology Integration at MJH
I look forward to being at MJH this year, and I am eager to help you with your instructional technology needs.
While I am aligned with the technology department, please realize that my role is more on the instructional side! In other words, printers and your computer not turning on are not my forte. Travis Hazzard is on campus weekly to help with things like that. However, helping you with technology integration lessons IS my area of expertise, like all things Google, student assessment tools such as Plickers, Socrative, Quizizz, and Kahoot, and BYOD just to name a few.
I can be reached by phone at x6130, by email at cvalastro@dickinsonisd.org, as well as at YouCanBook.Me to schedule time with me. (Anything in blue is available.)

Instructional Technology Professional Development
Every month, we hold district level technology professional development. We do one session on Google and another on Bring Your Own Device (BYOD). Because we are limited on the number of student devices available, we keep this in mind when planning to have realistic activities you can take back to your classroom.
