I am always interested in helping student interpret data and create data presentations that increase understanding of their research to a reader. Here is a presentation by Kathy Schrock about infographics.

I am so excited and nervous about starting the new MAT cohort on their research journey tomorrow. We learned SO much from last year’s tribe. This should go easier! Now, we have concrete examples, clearer guidelines (rails on the bowling lane!), and coaching schedules under control.

Our first MAT student presented at the Spring Symposium on May 27th. Michael Towle presented his action research on The Effect of a School-Wide Science Fair on High School Students’ Enthusiasm for Science. He fielded many questions from onlookers and represented us with professionalism. We are proud!

Ipad? Wait or go?

I am on the fence. I am reading a lot of blogs and reviews and just do not know. Educational content will make all the difference for me. If my specific textbook publishers are presenting material for the iPad, that will knock me off the fence! I imagine that I could have the ability to present entire lessons using the iPad-from presentation with live links, sound, and videos. If it interacts with the Livescribe pen then I am definitely IN! Cool!
