I am looking forward to begin this wonderful journey in Practicum in Technology . When I took up Leveraging Technology with John Mikton , I began working on a lower school library website project that turned into a HUGE success ! At present , the website serves about 150 elementary kids and the rest of the reading community. It is wonderful to see how technology can transform and empower students to read more . There is a detailed blog post about the website project right below this post.
For my practicum , I have decided to work with some third graders by forming a club called Brent Bytes. Brent Bytes will be one of the major student contributors of the lower school library website. Club members will be able to help foster a love of reading to other lower school students by using different technology tools and applications. They will learn how to create book trailers , animated book reviews, podcasts of book series and much more ! The club will start next week so watch out for awesome posts on the developments of this great adventure real soon !
