The technology is here, but are we using it effectively? All over campus I hear teachers say they would love to know more about how to use the technology available. Since we are all too busy to physically meet and learn, let's use this venue to help each other. Below is an area to place questions and leave answers for others. Also, check out WotW (explained below). I look forward to everyone's responses!

 * Let's Celebrate Success!** I've created **WofW** - or Wiki of the Week. Since we have not had time to keep up with "Good News," I would like to use this venue to collect data. Just click on the link below and add your student's acheivements or information of note. If you are new at this (like me) and would like to schedule a short tutorial session, just let me know. My hope is that we will all become more technology savvy while bragging about our students!

To get us started, I'm posting a question so that if any of us has a simple solution we can help each other. If you have a question, feel free to post it here. =**First Question - - - What piece of hardware do you have in your classroom that you feel you could use more effectively?**= //Molly's Answer:// My Elmo! I need to hook it up so that I can EASILY switch between it, my laptop, and Mr. Rice's computer projecting on the back wall.

Chris: I'm pretty comfortable with all my hardware...but converting using my mouse pen in conjunction with "Paint" sometimes gives me a little trouble.
