OELMA

The OELMA Board of Directors is considering dates for the 2009 conference.  One set of dates being reviewed runs from Thursday through Saturday, as opposed to the traditional conference days of Wednesday through Friday.

Let us know:  if the OELMA Conference ran from Thursday through Saturday, are you more or less likely to attend?  Leave comments here and the Board will consider them as we plan for the future!

My high school’s Technology Committee is looking at a variety of options to upgrade and/or update the technology in the building with the limited funds provided from a recent bond issue. 

1)  If you could wave a magic wand, what types of technology would you permanently install in a classroom to make instruction more effective?

___Desktop Computer

___Flat Screen

___Flex Cam

___Laptop Computer

___Smart Board Type Device

___Student Response Systems

___Subject Specific Software

___VCR

___Video Projector

      ____other  (Please name specifically)                                                                                                                       

 

 

2)  If classrooms had a video projector, how often do you envision it being used?

____One class per week

____2-3 classes per week

____All 5 classes every day

____Other                                                                                                                                                          

 

3)  Under ideal circumstances, what would the students in your building be able to do with classroom technology on a daily basis?
