Week 3 Leadership Blog

The Project:

My Leadership Project is a review of the tremendous success I experienced implementing my Capstone Project.  It provides a background of the problem that I experienced personally and knew many of my peers experienced, as well.  The problem was that we had access to technology for use in our classrooms, but we didn't know how to use it.  And rather than venture into the unknown, we let it sit in the corner, unused.  What ensued, was a group of tech-less teachers that morphed into technology users.  We saw the power of technology in the classroom. 

Why present this at a technology conference for teachers?  The GaETC is specifically for the professional development of educators with a focus on technology innovations and the impact on teaching and learning.  I think that sharing a successful plan for sharing technology with reluctant-to-embark-on-the-journey teachers will inspire "tech-y" people to continue reaching out to ALL teachers.
