23 Things – The First Thing

I am in my 10th year of teaching middle school math. I have always been considered one of the techies in my building. I tried to sign up for "23 things" last year but it was full so I missed it. :( A few weeks ago Ron was a speaker at a full district professional development day in Lowell. I was reminded of the "23 things" online course and thought I would give it another try. I hope to learn ways to better integrate the use of technology in my classroom. I hope that I can learn how to actually pull off what Ron made look so simple in his presentation. My biggest fear is that I will spend time integrating technology only to be faced with the cold hard truth that only half of my students have internet access and many do not even have a computer to work with at home. I want to make things better for everyone not just those how are financially well off.
