Day 2 - 1/09/07

What does technology look like?

Harrison County High School in Gulfport, Mississippi is a wonderful example of students and teachers using technology tools for learning. If that's not enough, see how Mary Scroggs Elementary School in Chapel Hill, North Carolina integrates technology to help younger children learn.

Creating a Resume
On Monday, I told you a little about my background. As on ongoing project we will create a web-based portfolio that will demonstrate how you used the technology we will be working with this semester. It will also include a link to your resume in order to highlight you academic and professional training.

In order to get you started thinking about your future I want for you to create a resume. Some of you may already have one and others may not. If you have one you may adjust it to suit this assignment (no use in recreating the wheel). Your resume should be professional and its purpose should focus on educational jobs. You'll want everything to look professional, so use a resume template. A resume provides a quick overview of your educational background, work experience, and skills to perspective employers. Here are some sites to help you in creating your resume:

You should submit a printed copy of your resume to me on Wednesday, January 17th.

For Friday...Bring your key drive, we will set it up for you to begin saving your files to it.
