The "Skype Cart" project is coming to a close. This project was funded by the 2016 MACUL Grant. Students at Tyrone Elementary School traveled over 11,000 miles, visited 2 countries, and toured places hundreds of miles away. It's been a great experience.

Ed Camp Detroit held it’s annual meeting last weekend on the Campus of Wayne State University. This meet up is led my Dr. Mary Waker of College of Education at WSU.
The concept is simple, a “Tic Tac Toe” board of is placed on one or more white boards. Meeting times are placed down the left side, and meeting rooms are placed across the top. In the open squares are topics for discussion, and the name of who is leading that conversation. Who decides what the topics for discussion will be? That’s the best part about Ed Camp, its open for any participate to led a discussion. To present at Ed Camp, you don’t have to have a prepared Keynote, Power Point or slide show of any kind. You don’t have to have activities and references. EdCamp is more conversational than a presentation. This lets the participates control the content of the training, and takes pressure off anyone leading the conversation, you don’t have to prep for hours. In the end I led a conversation about Skype in the Classroom, and I learned about a site called “Flipgrid”. How nice is that when you go to share a resource and leave with more tools then you came in with?
