First of all, I want to modify my last post. The students I teach in my CONNECT program are not educationally-challenged. They all like education. It's just that it has so be something they really enjoy like many of us. I will rename them traditional-school challenged. They just don't learn as well in the traditional sit-behind-a-desk classroom. So now that I feel better about that, moving on. How is my research going? Well, Twitter is my best research friend. There are so many amazing people on Twitter. My PLN is the greatest resource for information, research, and opinions on Bring-Your-Own-Device. Here are some of those that I follow: @markbarnes19 @SimpleK12 @TCEA @Matt_Gomez @web20classroom @NMHS_Principal @rmbyrne @SchoolHR The last few weeks, I have been researching resources to share with our teachers to help them effectively integrate devices. For my Digital Graphics class, we are working on a Tech Integration website that I will be adding a BYOD tools page to.
