Adapting technology for classrooms

Sometimes you are not working in a district with all of the technology.

Here are some ways to adapt technology into your classroom:

A bunch of hardware

a picture that shows the hardware you need to create mouse mischief
"this is all you need for mouse mischief"

Some parents could donate hubs or individual pieces for your lab set up.  Here is the link to Microsoft’s site: http://www.microsoft.com/multipoint/mouse-mischief/en-us/default.aspx

Here is another hardware alternative: http://www.slideshare.net/Adjem/the-75-smartboard-alternative

I teach technology in an inquiry based high school in Redmond, WA. I am fortunate to be part of a STEAM high school and to collaborate on many PBL projects. I have also taught technology integration in middle schools through pre-service teachers. I am currently teaching 5 sections of AP Computer Science Principles and I mentor a girl's outreach program for Computer Programming. As an Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert, I also have the privilege to travel and deliver trainings for i2E, NCCE and the Minecraft Education team. I have worked with #CorelaborateWA twitter teacher leaders and I am the 2017 WA PBS Digital Innovator. So many opportunities to meet and collaborate!
