SETSIG Preconference Workshop a Success!

Sean Smith, Kathleen McClaskey and I had the privilege to work together for a SETSIG sponsored preconference session. It went very well! We covered topics related to strategies to differentiate instruction using tools that are readily accessible. There were a few technology glitches but what is a technology workshop without a few glitches?!? The thing I found most amazing during the preconference, beyond the information presented, was the use of the wiki. During the workshop, participants and leaders both allowed the wiki not only to be a structure for the workshop but also used the wiki as a living document during the workshop. As people had additional information, it was added to the wiki in real time! Such power there is in collaboration!

The Night Before...

Tonight is the night before the SETSIG preconference session at NECC 2007 on Differentiating Instruction for Students with Diverse Learning Needs with Readily Accessible Technology...now that's a mouthful! It is being co-presented by Sean Smith, Katheleen McClaskey and myself. Specifically, it is focusing on technologies related to reading, writing and math.

The workshop is coming together well and I look forward to a full day of great experiences!

There is a wiki that we are maintaining for the workshop...check it out at http://differentiatingnecc2007.wikispaces.com. Feel free to add content!
