Welcome!

Winnetka campus>Image via WikipediaThis weblog will document my activities as a New Trier High School TSD (Technology Staff Developer) and Google Certified Teacher (GCT). What I'd like to feature includes:
  1. Tools which transform instruction, not tools for the sake of using technology
  2. Applications of these tools to my own teaching
  3. Examples of technology usage from my colleagues
My specialties are Social Studies and multimedia integration, as well as copyright/fair use. Any feedback from anyone is very much appreciated!

And finally, here is an outstanding example of a student presentation from Julia Barrow, who worked with me on an independent study project. Using the techniques outlined above, Julia designed these slides and recorded a voice-over synced with the images. Wow!
