From the T+L2 Weblog today…this IS what ed tech is all about:
A team comprised of the elementary, middle, and highschool MovieFest winners ran around the convention center with three digital video cameras, interviewing some who’s who of ed. tech. Then, it was back to the hotel for an into-the-night editing session. Today they are putting on the finishing touches of the short video, which includes original music via Garage Band, to be shown at Friday’s General Session.
These kids, who had never met before, worked exceptionally well as team, especially considering the age range from elementary to highschool. I think they were amazed to see throngs of educators so enthusiasticallly advocating ed.Tech. (Todd Mattox, Bear Valley Middle School, Escondido, CA)
I mean, how cool is that? And they’re blogging too! This is my new mantra: Collaborate, Communicate, Construct. We’re going to be amazed by the changes these technologies are going to demand in education…
