March 8th: Teaching Teachers With Technology: 10 Years of Tips and Secrets

Over the past ten years, EdTechTeacher has worked with thousands of educators from all across the world. One part of our mission is to help teachers leverage emerging technologies to create student-centered, inquiry-based learning environments. An essential component of that mission is building capacity. Nothing makes us happier then when participants come back for a second summer and tell us: “I taught my colleagues everything I learned from last summer’s workshop.” So in this Teaching Technology to Teachers webinar , we plan to share some of the most important principles, strategies, tips and tricks that we have learned over ten years of technology professional development with educators. Come join us and share your own best practice for teaching technology to teachers.
