Use e-mail -  This is a sample of an E-Mail that Robin sent me.

Produce materials such as desktop publishing products, such as newsletters.

***Sample of a newsletter I recently sent home.

12.4 Create physical settings that support active student involvement, inquiry, and collaboration.

Establish classroom/areas with the physical atmosphere reflecting technology utilization.

This website reflects a technology wise room design. Our set-up at MCES is different in that the computer stations are located in a "U" shape around the walls of the room. The room is shared with the entire school with a sign-up sheet posted.

12.5 Employ technology (where available and appropriate) to organizational and management strategies that support active student involvement, inquiry, and collaboration.

Develop technology units or lesson plans integrating technology and databases of instructional materials (Internet)

**This is a sample of a slide show one of my students put together on evolution. They were learning to use the program, therefore the criteria for the presentation were simple. They had to have a minimum of five slides, show some creativity, and give some knowledge of content.
