Finished! I want to say that the Atomic Learning 21st Century Skills Assessment was interesting. I liked most of the questions but did struggle with some of them partly because I was trying to multi-task on IB things which was not the best idea (hindsight is so valuable).
Question 1- I will use Glogster for creating a multi-media poster which really seems more valuable that a traditional poster format. I will also have my various classes maintain a blog, maybe a wiki, to help each other with different technology tasks.
Question 2- I've always loved technology but worry about equity/access among students. This year I am excited to know that will be less of a problem. Now I just need to make sure I take as many risks in learning and trying new tools as I expect my students too!
Question 3- Unexpected outcomes... working more collaboratively with many other peers that I often don't have time to network with and finding some tools that will make my job easier not harder. :-)
Congratulations on finishing. I know that you will try some of these different "tools" in your classroom because you teach technology. The younger they are, the better able they will be to take what they have learned to help with their own learning.
