Another Excellent EdTech Connect Webinar
Stephanie Throne & Grace Smith shared a multitude of ideas about differentiating instruction in the classroom. Although their book, Differentiating Instruction with Technology in K-5 Classrooms, is intended for the elementary level, many of the tips and techniques presented during the webinar could be incorporated at any level (I teach 9-12 and I can’t wait to try some of their ideas).
You can find many resources on their website at Everything DI - http://everythingdi.net/.
Some of the online resources webinar participants shared were:
- ClassMarker.com - http://classmarker.com
- Accelerated Learning - http://www.acceleratedlearning.com/index.html
- MakeBeliefsComix - http://makebeliefscomix.com/

Tracy,
Thanks for the kind remarks. We had a great time doing the webinar, as well as “conversing” with all the participants and listening to some neat ideas.
If you are attending NECC, we hope to see you at our session/presentation. Keep your eye out for some of our (already) published and forthcoming articles and books.
Thanks again!
