Working on ideas
Conversation takes a different turn
Ms. Malone
One of her goals for this school year was to include more technology into her teaching. Ms. Malone states, "I would not feel right pushing kids into the real world without having them have a grasp on how to properly manipulate and use technology to their advantage." One day these students may "be using Skype to interview for a job..."
"I consider both sessions a success! I'm still running on adrenaline of trying something new..."
Ms. Malone and her classes thank Ms. Chrissy Gregg, the World War II Museum in New Orleans, and Microsoft for this opportunity.
