WSD Tech News
April 4, 2016
It's Been a While
I haven't sent out a Tech News in quite a while. I'm trying to be sensitive to all that you have going on. I know that some are immersed or soon will be immersed in SBAC. Others are working on culminating projects, assessments, writing prompts, projects for math studio, and so much more. Your hard work is appreciated.
For those that have completed SBAC or will begin soon (the window goes through the month of May!) - please be considerate of our network. That means no streaming the Masters golf tournament later this week, and stop watching those cute eaglets. :)
With that being said, there are hopefully ways that technology can assist you in being more efficient. I'll share some new ideas below. Thanks for reading!
