We are excited to be in San Francisco this week to share and learn! We have two poster sessions and two conference sessions! As a Social Studies Teacher and Librarian, we love Primary sources and it shows this week. We are using primary sources with picture books to help guide inquiry and add background knowledge to our lessons for all students with a focus on secondary classrooms. Primary sources then meet technology tools.
As geeky teachers, we are always looking at the latest tools and evaluating their classroom applications. Web 2.0 tools meet more primary sources with 20 tools and ideas for using them for analysis, presentation, assessment and sharing. Have you thought about the current media landscape knowing that most millennials get their news from their social media accounts. How can we help our students navigate the internet and find the credible resources that they need for research. Can social media be categorized and used as a primary source? We will explore these ideas and offer some ideas for your classroom.
Come and see us on Friday at the Poster Sessions where we will be highlighting ways to use primary sources and technology tools with picture books - MS and HS will LOVE this!
We are also demonstrating 250 ways to use tech tools with primary sources! Need a new idea? Come and see us at the poster sessions!
This afternoon we will be presenting a session about how History is NOT Old and BORING! Let us help you partner with resources, agencies and programs that will help take your history teaching beyond your classroom walls and into NEW and EXCITING!
Join us Saturday morning for a sesssion on Media Literacy and how to help your students to be ethical users of information in a changing landscape. Where do you find the good stuff? Is social medial a primary source? We will be exploring these issues and demonstrating Nearpod!
