Have you ever been inspired by student work that was so much more than you expected. By allowing the students to be the master of technology while you retain the role of facilitator and guide, you can enjoy inspiring projects frequently. The teacher does not have to master technology because the kids are already the experts. This workshop is designed to give teachers strategies for enabling their students to use technology to enhance learning. Educators will learn how to guide their students to take the lead.
