Participants will experiment tech tools that have worked well in our daily teaching and have been practical and efficient for students' learning, especially in a project-based learning environment.","Description":"What does it mean to be a wired history classroom? Now into our sixth year of practicing hardwired innovation in a 1:1 environment, we have learned a few things and are excited to share our insights. Our goal is to dissect the wired history classroom experience and lay on display the \u201ctextbook-less\u201d approach to using multiple perspectives, collaborative projects, and assessment.  In doing so, we will be highlighting practical tools that allow teachers and students to work in an inquiry-based environment, tips for classroom teachers wherever they may land on the technological spectrum, and concrete examples of how to make technology work for you, for the students, and for the history classroom.","Link":[],"Audience":["High School","Middle School"],"Practice":"We will share ideas and ask participants to look at case studies, using tech tools to have an interactive discussion on teaching and learning with technology.\r\nSome of the tools we will use are Mentimeter and Padlet.","Presenter":["Yolanda Wilcox-Gonzalez","Melissa Alkire","Geeta Jain","Rodney Yeoh","Kader Adjout"],"PresenterAffiliation":["Beaver Country Day School"],"PresenterEmail":["kadjout@bcdschool.org"],"ScheduleSlotID":46,"ScheduleLocationID":5,"SubmitterID":79,"AdditionalComments":"We look forward to sharing with and learning from participants.","LiveChannel":null,"Hashtag":null,"VokleID":null,"RecordingURL":null,"ConferenceID":4}}
