Returning to the Blog Scene

After connecting with so many great people at ISTE 12 in San Diego, it became apparent that I need to begin blogging again to stay on top of all the latest in the Ed Tech world. So here I am starting my journey again. I have recently moved to South Carolina from New Jersey, leaving my tenured position behind for a great job offer that my husband received. I would love to connect with educators and help develop them with technology. I figured blogging was a good way to start after the advice I received from my new PLC friends. Networking at the Ed Tech Karaoke party was a great place to meet new people.

This was my second time at ISTE and I was able to present a poster session with my fellow graduate classmates, which was great! We had exceptional feedback and learned a ton from other educators. The best session I went to was a BYOD hosted by Chris Fitzgerald Walsh (@fitzwalsh) from the New Tech Network titled "Even More Google Geekiness". The time seemed to fly as he amazed us with geeky tech tips for using all sorts of Google Apps including spreadsheets, docs, and the new Google Drive. I was so happy that he shared a Google Doc with us that linked us to all the goodies! I know I will reference it often.  Check it out!
