Technology Day 2009: Participant Feedback

“I learned today that as an educator I need to do a better job of meeting my students where they are. With today’s educational technology, learning is ubiquitous.”

“Very enjoyable and inspiring. Great idea for teacher education majors. Elementary and Middle school teachers can use these ideas to teach for story writing, flow, etc.”

“Very appropriate to the college level of interest and technological competency. I got some good ideas.”
“Very nice presentations. I liked the way presenters shared examples from their classes.”
