Use looping GIFs so people can see the tiny moves that make big changes possible.

My tips for presenters

Keep the lecture short, get participants up and moving in the first 20 minutes.
Have a back up plan when the internet goes down.
Make sure participants leave with something they have created, they love that!

Survey the group at the start so you know your audience. Post your presentation URL & contact info at the beginning and the end.

It's all about the write up.

The one thing that really helps the CUE screeners is making sure your abstract of your session is reasonable and matches something that can easily be attained in the time frame of your session.

Social media is a way to model and teach our future respect, collaboration, and sharing ideas in a collaborative LMS. Schoology!

Come prepared with dongles, and have your presentation downloaded as a PDF or off-line access...just in case!

Be prepared for wifi to go out, or other technology not to work. Have a back-up plan so you're not stuck without your presentation. Download a copy as a PDF, just in case. Use bit.ly to easily shorten links for others to access your resources. Using Google Slides, share your slides with your attendees (use a bit.ly link) and hyperlink resources within the presentation for easy access.

Have fun and be open to new ideas that attendees may have.

I'm excited to present to share but also to learn from those attending my session!

Let them play!

As a Tech TOSA, part of my job is to do a lot of training and professional development.  I have started to incorporate as much play into that PD as possible.  Diane Ackerman said, "Play is our brain's favorite way of learning." I agree.  I believe that a hands-on, engaging and interactive training is one of the best ways to get teachers to explore new technology.  I often encourage my teachers to push buttons...our students do, so let's not be afraid to try new things. When we play, we are really just disguising our learning.  Explore how you can inspire others to play, learn, and then share something new!  Good luck!
