A SMARTer Future...a blog by Terri Pelleyhttp://www.video-reality.comWed, 08 Sep 2010 01:18:30 GMTContent Creation Seminar Began Summer with a Bang!http://www.video-reality.com/content-creation-seminar-began-summer-with-a-bangMon, 21 Jun 2010 19:29:14 GMTTerri PelleyOn June 7, 8, and 9th, 65 Edmond Public Schools certified teachers gathered at Santa Fe High School for two and a half days of professional development, content creation, and ending with a great "Show N' Share session for all.  With the help of Tony and Terri from Video Reality and Skyla and Dwayne from SMART Technologies these teachers collaborated, created, and knocked out 2-4 lesson activities each.  Some began from scratch, others "borrowed ideas", and everyone worked diligently to complete and upload SMART Notebook 10 interactive whiteboard lessons to the SMART Exchange.  These lessons are now being made public on the SMART Exchange...usually you can use the keyword "Oklahoma" to view those from our seminar.  It's a great feeling to see your own lessons online for others to use!

Also, a special thanks to Becki Teague and Diane Finley for their hard work and help to make this event a succcess!
