Welcome!

Hello all!

Welcome to the blogspot for the Middle School methods course in Technology. We will be using this as a tool throughout the course, so please keep the address handy to make weekly access easier. I am very excited about the semester as there are so many exciting things happening in the world of educational technology.

Our first class time is on Monday, September 10 beginning at 3:30 in the Dublin Middle School technology lab. At that time, I will give you more information about the course and our plans for the semester. Before we meet however, I would love to know more about you and what you have to offer. Please take a few minutes to access and complete the survey below. I will be using your confidential responses to help guide our activties for the semester.

Also, your only course material requirement is to make sure you have some way to store and move files...my suggestion is a jump drive with at least 256mb of storage. If you don't already have one, they can be found at very low prices. I believe Radio Shack has a 256 mb for about $8 and a 1 GB for about $20. I would suggest getting the most amount of storage space you can afford as this will be a very handy, useful tool way beyond the limits of this course. Please come prepared with this item to the first class.

In the meantime, if you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me. I look forward to meeting you all! See you soon!
