Integrating Technology
How do you include technology in your
practice?
 Find a tool and figure out how to use it with
your students/staff

students/staff and then how technology
could deepen or expand on the lesson
(POST)

technology might help

POST Method







P is People. Know the capabilities of your audience.
Know what scaffolding they’ll need.
O is objectives. Pick one. Decide on your objective
before you decide on a technology. Then figure out how
you will measure it.
S is Strategy. Figure out what will be different after you're
done. Imagine you succeed. How will things be different
afterwards? Imagine the endpoint and you'll know where
to begin.
T is Technology. A community. A wiki. A blog or a
hundred blogs. Once you know your people, objectives,
and strategy, then you can decide with confidence.

Hashtags vs Mentions







Hashtags have # in front of them (no spaces allowed)
Hashtags are like signposts to content
Mentions start with @ followed by a person or organization’s twitter
name (no spaces allowed)
Mentions help connect people who tweet (tweeple?)
Mentions are like sign posts to other people who tweet

47

47
Hashtags are Ephemeral




Hashtags lose their value if they are not used often.
If using a hashtag for a short term event it’s a good idea to
archive the content so it can be found later
