Last PD I implemented.....

The last PD I implemented at Spencer was a 45 minute presentation on quick ways to use technology in the classroom.
First of all I found out I was doing the presentation about 1 day in advance, so I had very little time to prepare for it. So after thinking about what I could show the staff that they had not seen already, I decided on glogster.
The session was about 45 minutes to an hour which was shared with the Assistant Principal, the other Lead Tech teacher and myself. I decided to make a glogster project about using tech in the classroom to show a finished product but also take ideas from the audience and add to the project. From there we had about 10 minutes to look at the site and discuss how to use it in a classroom setting.
To improve upon this session, I would have has the teachers sign up for accounts previous to the PD. I would have also given a small assignment so that they could have some familiarity with the tool. I would have then discuss technical issues they had with the site, what they may foresee their students having issues with, and lastly what projects they want to do with their students. With the remaining time (if any), I would have had the teachers plan a math or vocabulary lesson that they could have gone back the next day and implemented.
