Help the Midwest’s 1:1 districts learn from each other about innovative teaching, learning, and administrative practices that are occurring in their districts;
Build excitement and ‘buzz’ around 1:1 laptop computing initiatives in the Midwest; and
Help others who are interested in 1:1 computing learn more about how to get started and be successful.
The institute is open to anyone interested in 1:1 laptop computing initiatives in P-12 schools, whether they currently are working in such a program or just want to learn more. http://iowa1to1.com/ Session Resources
What should you do if you teach middle level math at a 1:1 district? Put worksheets online? Have students mindlessly click buttons? If this sounds familiar, you aren’t alone. Math and 1:1 are tough to mesh together, but I would like to use my five years of 1:1 math experience (10 years total) to show you how. Session content will include introductions and opportunities to try multiple 1:1 math resources as well as how to structure your classroom to maximize the benefits of 1:1. Upper elementary and early high school teachers are also invited!
