- Media Fair – Let your students produce! The name of the Media Fair game is creation. Students create, students submit, students win, students feel confident about themselves. Every student should participate. Every student can be a part of this. Use what you already do in the classroom for this: research papers, Paint, Power Points, Publisher posters, etc. E-mail me to work on whole class projects. All entries are due December 10th. Click here to log-in and review rules.
- Open Lab – Media Fair Work Time – Do you have one or a few students who want to do a project? Do they keep bugging you about some idea that they want to do? I have made 8 dates to work specifically on Media Fair entries in the computer lab with individual or small groups of students. This is for your students who keep up with classroom work, but do not get the opportunity to work on independent technology products. Check the dates below and send me an e-mail to reserve time(s) for your student(s). If I get a lot of students signed-up, I will schedule more time. Thank you Judy McGibboney for already taking me up on this offer.

- Tech Fusion 2.0 – Tech Fusion is here again. Use your students’ products from Media Fair for your Tech Fusion 2.0 lesson submissions. Click here for details and an overview. Your first Tech Fusion submission is due December 17th. Hint for the uncreative: search for previous Tech Fusion lessons by subject/grade. See if you could improve upon someone else’s lesson. Team-up with another teacher and you both get credit. All teachers must submit two Tech Fusion lessons.
- Grades – Grades must be verified by 8:00 Thursday morning. To access the updated end-of-six-weeks checklist for your grade, go to Blackboard>Elliott Staff Resources>Documents>Technology>Gradespeed. As always e-mail me with any questions that you may have, preferably before 7:59 AM on Thursday morning.
And yes, I did copy and paste to create this Technology Memo. Media Fair, Tech Fusion, and grades are that important.
