What a great place to hold an event for Discovery Education…a school. No room fees, no charge for Internet, and we even get to sit in those little chairs. I was pretty pumped up when I found out that Propel Montour would be hosting this very unique virtual conference on January 9th. Even though it is [...]

I came to Justin Karkow’s presentation late from blogging our live event with Patti Duncan, so I missed the intro. But his message soon became apparent: we often ask students to check how they learn best when they enter our classrooms. He showed us the old job wheel, contrasted by the 21st century job wheel. [...]
The no-so-spooky hour of 2 has just passed, and we’re live again with Patti Duncan, who admits that earlier presentations, both live and virtual, stole most of her tools. According to her, however, she has many tools in her pockets, so she is good to go. Her goal: despite whatever your level of use, she [...]
These dedicated teachers truly embody 24/7 transparent learning and teaching.
If anyone can keep me from eating lunch, it would be Steve Dembo, who can hold a virtual or real audience word by word. Trying to capture any of Steve’s presentations is an exercise in rapid writing and fast screen shots. Steve was number four on the Top Ten Reasons To Attend the Fall Virtual [...]
Tech or Treat continues, live in the Learners Lab, but for this time slot, we turn our blogging to Mike Bryant’s multimedia presentation. When you begin thinking about slides, think outside the slide, from a flat still image to what goes beyond the image. So, using Shakespeare’s birthplace and highlighting the window, you can push [...]
Tracey McGrath and Patti Duncan, PA Leadership Council members, began the day with “Getting Started With Discovery Education,” a presentation pitched to beginners who want to immerse themselves slowly in Discovery basics. Tracey began with introductions, with participants stating their name, school, and giving a brief description of their experience with education and technology. Then [...]
