Learning in the 21st Century

Our teachers are really working to be ahead of the technology trends. The more we can utilize the technology in students' hands, the better we can engage them. 
Here is a group of teachers sharing blogging ideas and ways they utilize technology in the classroom. This year Mrs. Carney changed jobs from the library, which she absolutely loves, to be our 21st Century Technology Specialist, something she is also very passionate about. She meets with classes for 45 minutes a week to provide them with ways to use teachnology for learning, and teaching. She also collaborates with classroom teachers to connect the learning that's going on in the classroom with  technology to provide students with the richest experience possible. 

We realize that we are preparing students for careers that may not even exist yet...using technology that definitely does not yet exist. Though we cannot control what they'll be learning, we can teach them how to learn so they'll be prepared for whatever career paths they choose.
