No matter what you know about using technology in the classroom now, there's always more to explore. Administrators, parents, and students value technology as our newest and most flexible teaching tool. Your school system should offer training in technology. Talk to your media specialist for ideas too. Attend a conference.
Conferences provide an opportunity to network with other educators and share teaching techniques.
The majority of teachers who attend conferences return rejuvenated and enthusiastic. Develop a new program at your school. Don't be afraid to try it. Maybe you've wanted to direct a school play, start a knitting group, head a peer-support group, or create a homework voicemail system for parents. Whatever your thought, go for it.
