Matt’s Spotlight Sessions:

Consumer to Creator – The Student as Both the Learner and the Teacher

Students have become producers and publishers of content. How do educators teach someone who is technically proficient, & social media-minded?  Come and explore nine free tools you can use tomorrow and one story that will inspire you.

When is Audio More Than Audio?  Using Discovery Education audio and close captioned files to help language arts curriculum

During this session we’ll examine different types of Discovery Education songs, sound effects, speeches and primary source material and learn how they can be incorporated into reading and writing lesson plans.  We’ll also explore how this content, when combined with free web 2.0 tools and current office software, can be used to reach different types of learners.

Digital Storytelling 2.0

Did you know that you and your students could make and edit movies just like the pros without an expensive editing bay or leaving your classroom?   Join us as we explore just how easy it is to import media, edit projects, and create movies with Discovery Education streaming media, iPhones/iPads, web 2.0 tools like PhotoPeach, and a simple green shower curtain.  Come see and learn media creation in a whole new way.
