Where For Art Thou Portfolio??
As all educators look for a way to secure data from their students, teachers need to think of ways to capture their own data to support their instruction. It seems like an simple idea, but collecting data will be challenging for teachers that do not know how to. What data should I gather? How much do I need? When should I start and end the collection? Why is it important to gather? First the idea that collecting data for grades only needs to be revised just a bit. Education needs to be a…See More

Over the weekend I heard Apple sold over 2 million phones world wide! The funny part is I didn't think that many people needed a new phone; but then again it is the latest and greatest tool out there right!

Out of Our Minds
Recently as a staff we were asked to read the book Out of Our Minds by Sir Ken Robinson. I have to say the book supported the idea of keeping creativity in school, but also ignited the inspiration I needed to start to think more out of the box. I need to develop a shape for myself and how it will define me. Do I want to inspire others by my actions or try to be innovated in creating something so amazing for my…See More
