ISTE 2015 Highlights

This past week, I had the privilege of attending the best conference I have EVER attended. ISTE 2015 in Philadelphia was nothing short of amaZING (not the capital "ZING").

At ISTE, I was able to gain tons of information, make a lot of connections, and get a bunch of ideas for using technology to increase student engagement, student achievement, and teacher technology usage in the classroom. Some of these ideas will be discussed in future posts and are listed below:

• Badging for students (for teachers)

• Badging for teachers (for tech coaches and other administrators)

• Student created video games

• Virtual Reality

• Osmo- The Award-Winning Educational Gaming System for iPad

• Student Tech Assistants
