C4T #2 Summary

The blog I was assigned is called The Power of Educational Technology by Liz B Davis. She is Director of Curriculum at Keys School.

The first post I commented on is called Using Design Thinking to Reimagine Back To School Night. In this post she tells us about what she is going to do with the parents when they come to back to school night. It consists on five parts and basically the parents get broken up into groups interview each other, share their ideas, and come up with ways of what their partner needs. I think this will be a fun activity to do with parents and keep them engaged with back to school night. it is also a good way to get the parents thoughts about school and what should be going on.

The second post I commented on is called My Google Teacher Academy 2014 Application. In this post Mrs. Davis had to make a one minute video that answered the question "How do you innovate in the classroom or educational community to generate positive change?". She made her video into a rap about innovation and positive change. It was very cute and upbeat. She mentioned that you have to take risks, step out of your comfort zone, use chromebook and google apps for education, and design thinking projects. I liked her video a lot and could tell that she was a fun educational teacher just by watching this one video.
