 This wiki has been created for Morris Elementary teachers so that we can help educate each other and share the new and innovative technology advancements. Any member of the staff may edit this page, add and ask questions or give suggestions. Click on this link to learn how to do this. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-dnL00TdmLY We need to improve technology use and integration at our campus. A three year review of our campus STaR chart shows that we have more negative trends than positive. We are not improving, technologically speaking, in the way that the Long Range Plan expects. What can we do as a campus to rectify this?

 Our students of course are the "digital natives". We are the "digital immigrants". In order for us to reach them more effectively, we need to be able to talk their talk and teach through this technology. Hopefully we can introduce them to a few new things along the way. Feel free to explore the links and add new links, ideas or anything that you feel will help educate the "digital immigrants" of our time, and reach the "digital natives" of the 21st Century. In order to learn about, or add to the topics at the left, click on the link.

Matt Damon is so well spoken in this speech. "The qualities that make me who I am can't be tested!" There is so much more to instilling a love of learning than testing. To create LIFELONG learners, we need more than testing!! media type="youtube" key="k7Jh3Z52KV0" height="349" width="425"
