Sumary of first lesson

Our session will be our classroom with a warm up, teacher lead lesson, student work time, summary and reflection. The final product will be an understanding of how to maximize your existing technology to engage students, including how to test students frequently, an introduction to student self assessments and peer review. We will post online samples of paper and pencil work, Word Docs, PowerPoint presentation, video, pod cast. Every thing will be done and/or introduced during the session.
