From my Flickr stream:
Dr. Jason Ohler presents to a gymnasium filled with Midland County teachers at the October 9 professional development day. Ohler’s keynote emphasized the importance of storytelling in education and encouraged teachers to “take the next step” with technology.
After the keynote, teachers had the opportunity to attend smaller, hands-on sessions about different technology topics.
Click on the photo to see a few other snapshots from the keynote. I helped teach the other sessions, so I only have photos from the opening keynote.
It’s worth mentioning that I helped organize this ambitious event. We had technical difficulties with the opening keynote (poor acoustics and overwhelming traffic on the Northwood campus), but the rest of the day went well. I helped teach a beginning and an advanced Moodle session, and I hosted a Moodle Q&A session in the afternoon.
I hope we’ll get to plan another event next year.
