Why the 2005 NCCE Conference was a good investment for the Puyallup School District?

I really liked the Geocaching! Especially the cacher named GEM's!
4:32 PM
I agree with you Betsy...GEM's was a great guy and the work that went into the geocaching activity was amazing!
11:48 PM
Wow! Great Betsy! This is another place for GEM's to have a good time!
1:00 PM
I learned a lot about SmartBoard and Promethean. I'm not sure which one I like better. Any opinions?
10:27 AM
I would really like to find out more about the peer coaching and how we could get on board with that process. I was pleased with all the great websites that the conference introduced me to.
4:25 PM
Learned some great new info about ways to use Google searches.
4:26 PM
I also liked the SmartBoards. Will older schools get these too? (-: Please, please,please!
4:26 PM
Wow!! I have to say that the geo stuff was fantastic. The smart board was also fun to see. There were so many wonderful things, but the sessions I attended on WA State History and Writer's Companion were amazing.
4:27 PM
I can believe all the great websites I found throughout the conference. I am sure glad that we didn't lose Betsy!!!
4:28 PM
Appeciated the info on how to search for and validate software...research based, proven results.
4:28 PM
I really want to check out the Quizdom software! Maybe Glenn (with all his connections)can help me get a FREE trial goin' at Waller!! There are few other things that will hold a kid's attention than a gameboy shaped remote to answer questions with!!!
4:28 PM
Wonderful! Fantastic! WOW!! Th NCCE was a great experience for me. I learned so much more about technology in the classroom. Some of what I learned will assist me with a few of my Special Ed kids and their reading. The Pacific NW history session was great! I'd attend again in a minute.
4:28 PM
Ir provided information for teachers / administrators to take back to their buildings to get everyone excited about the technology we have and that we will be getting.
4:28 PM
It was great to have time away from the daily schedule to concentrate on learning new activites to share with staff and students.
I liked all of the orginizational hints that I learned from one presentation. I have already created an ongoing "to do list" outline to keep on my desktop.

I don't think I need to have any more chocolate though after our trip home. Fran

I have to say that I am so grateful to work for the PSD. I loved going to the Conference. Actually, it was my first conference since I have been with the PSD and it was fun and informative.
4:29 PM
I saw a demonstration about using voice recognition technology to help students with reading fluency. The demo was for a particular piece of vendor software. The software was interesting but it was more interesting to me to think about using this technology in this way.
4:29 PM
With Quizdom located in Puyallup I would hope that we can do some piloting of the program.
4:30 PM
My favorite presenter was Cheryl Lemke from the Metiri group. She was a fountain of info! I also enjoyed Jesse Starr's digital photography class. What a blast!
4:30 PM
Hey Nicci.....the older schoools should get the SmartBoards first!! Yeah!!! :o)
4:30 PM
Another great part was the geocaching! The walking around the converntion center looking for tupperware containers was a lot of fun. No, I didn't steal and tupperware!!
4:30 PM
The dollars spent on sending us to the conference was worthwhile. I know that many of us will pass along to our fellow teachers what we learned and they will get excited about helping improve student learning via technology.
4:31 PM
There were some great sessions on using Google and effective PowerPoint presentations. The Portfolio presentation will be especially useful as it gave us ideas in creating our 9th grade portfolios in PowerPoint.
4:32 PM
The Promethean demo was awesome! What an amazing tool. Any chance a classroom could ever get one?
4:32 PM
How many days of the week begin with "T"???
How many seconds (2nd's) are there in a year?
How many "d's" in Rudolph the red Nosed Reindeer?
If you heard Vince Lomnardi you know the answers!!!
4:32 PM
The most fabulous part of the whole conference was the one presented by the Puyallup School District Instructional Tech Team. They were awesome! They are doing so many wonderful things for their teachers and kids in Puyallup!
4:34 PM
Great tips on Digital Photography. Now I know why my pics are always blurry.
4:34 PM
The NCCE Conference was useful to me because I was able to learn two things - good ways to use the technology we have, and what I should be dreaming of. Using technology requires planning ahead, and you need to know what is available and what will be available in order to plan. That is how my school will benefit. I will help plan. Oh, and I will never use another fancy animation or pretty picture in Powerpoint. That will save me time.
