More Technology Tidbits for Teachers
The Tech Team has been busy … to say the least. A new phone system with voice mail, a new network and the impending addition of some other wonderful tools has been a challenge. In between, we have been dealing with the work orders through School Dude and, as a credit to the Tech staff, they have gotten most of the bugs out of the new systems.
On Monday (Sept. 29) at 6:00 pm, RETA will be presenting another one-hour webinar, Show Me the Moodle. Moodle is an acronym for Modular Object-Oriented Dynamic Learning Environment. This presentation promises to show how teachers from other districts are using Moodle in their classrooms to enhance student engagement and learning. The Tech Team is currently undertaking steps to make Moodle available to all Socorro teachers and staff.
I’ll be the first to admit that I’d rather be curled up in couch-potato position by 6:00 on Monday night. However, the opportunity to learn how to improve my effectiveness as a teacher drives away the aches and pains of another Monday. My curiosity has been piqued by the RETA experience, and this promises to be another exciting session of professional development.
You can’t beat the price … it’s free! Join us in the conference room at C.O. or check it out online from the comforts of home.
