UW-Lacrosse Blended Learning Conference

I was honored to be asked to present at the UW-Lacrosse Blended Learning Conference this week.  Educators from around the Lacrosse area gathered to learn about and discuss best practices in technology integration.  While I couldn't be there physically due to travel and time of year, I was able to join virtually- my first virtual presentation!  Thanks to my co-presenter, Kimberly Uelmen, for being part of this journey with me!

Our topic was  Using Twitter for student collaboration and district promotion.  My part of the presentation focused on the instructional uses for Twitter in the classroom.  I was able to showcase some of our teachers thanks to blogs by our teachers and technology integrator.  Thanks to Sara Malchow, Clay Reisler, Steven Seamandel, and Dave Bentz for your ideas, testimonials and documentation of learning!

Kimberley's focus on was on using Twitter to promote our district.  She shared how our district uses twitter as well as tips she's learned along the way for successful marking using this social media.
