Timesavers for Teachers
Thursday February 20, 2025 10:20am - 12:40pm MST
Glen 209 - CTCC
We graduated from University of Alberta 12 years ago now, and have been in a variety of roles. Through our combined experiences, we have implemented various time saving techniques as well as utilize websites to help maintain an overcome the mountain of expectations of our profession. We've put into practices several things that help us stay sane and caught up with the ever growing "MUST DO!" list. Connecting Google Classroom with outside websites like Pear deck, GoNoodle, ZipGrade, Flippity, Orange Slice, Classroom Economy and Microsoft OneNote. All of these websites and tools help keep us organized, and foster a greater sense of student ownership and participation in our student's learning. With this session, our hope is that we help teachers (new and experienced) who would like to implement simple and engaging systems into their teaching. We feel like this session would be most beneficial to new educators that are just entering into their career. The last part of the session will be playing and experimenting with these websites and sharing beneficial resources - breaking up into smaller groups to have some collaborative time! We promise that you will walk away with something wonderful to use with your students on Monday morning. **PLEASE BRING TECHNOLOGY TO THIS SESSION!!**
