Common Questions

What can I do to ensure I know more than my kids and my students about using tech?Good luck! Remember that our students don’t have real jobs like us and they have a lot more time to play with, thereby learn, tons about their computers! It’s a good idea to find a tool or a few tools you really like and stay with that.

What am I going to learn?Course offerings are based on strands identified as important to teachers. We THINK we’ve been listening to you; times & topics vary.

How much of a time commitment is this? It’s up to you. Michael Boll’s amazing and prestigious university credit course will require a greater time commitment, and yield greater results. Other courses can be taken an hour or two at a time to fit your needs, interests and schedules.

Who are the teachers?This spring, your teachers will be the faboulous trio; Mike Boll, David Larson and Annie Hall Paulson... unless we can get some other volunteers to help out :)

What do I get when I finish? Upon completion of a strand, you will receive a proficiency certificate, university credit where applicable, AND your great new knowledge and expertise garnered in the number of hours spent on the professional development of your choice.

UNIVERSITY COURSE

Using Today’s Technology to Enhance Student

Learning and Collaboration Inside and Outside

of the Classroom

April 2010

COURSE DESCRIPTION:

Computers and the Internet have been around for a relatively long time, yet for many teachers, our methodologies have not kept pace. While our students are moving forward in how they interact with the world and each other, our educational system is not. What should an educator do? How can an educator possibly keep up?

This class will address that very issue by focusing on two areas:• The tools that make your classroom environment technologically efficient and purposeful• The ideas and pedagogical shifts that need to take place to prepare our students for a future that is hard to predict

LEADER: Michael BollTIME COMMITMENT: 12 class hours + 6 project hours

This 18 credit university level course is taught by the famous Mr. Boll. You can check out his site and find out more about the course at Mr.Boll.com (www.mrboll.com). Check the HOL tab for all the information you dreamed of... and more. Most importantly, the Bibliography and Course Syllabus.

• Work Order System

• Wireless Network security

• Software Image

• Backing Up




Distribution




Considerations

•Staggered by Grade•Parents Own the Laptops•Arena Registration Each Year•Given Before or After Summer?




Label Those Machines!




Any Other Ideas?

http://openetherpad.org/laptopmanagement






Acceptable Use Policy




SummaryThe Tech Code can be summed up in two points:

• I commit myself to think before I act, to learn the implications of my actions, and to willingly take responsibility for my actions, including making appropriate apologies and restorations.

• I commit myself to the Golden Rule, that is, to treat others as I would have them treat me.

Avoid “lawyering” of the issue




Any Other Ideas?







Naming Scheme

We Use a Student’s ID As a Unique Identifier

Example: madison2014123

First Name

GraduationYear

Student Number




Repairs and Maintenance

Concordia’s fix it team




Take The Teacher Out

Of The Equation




Work Order System

•Efficient Ways to Handle Tech Requests

•Allows You to Look for Patterns




Wireless Network Security

Password or MAC Address




Software Image

Get Lots of Input and Make It Better Each Year




Any Other Ideas?







Backing Up

•No Current Network Solution

•Teachers Given Hard Drives

•Students HIGHLY Encouraged to Purchase a Backup Drive
