Learning Tools Smackdown,  Maryland Style!

Teacher-librarians & technology education practitioners will share their ideas relating to effective practice in use of 2.0 tools to deliver the mission that resonates well with ISTE's NETS*S. The tools have multiplied dramatically in the past year and this sharing session will help us all better understand thoughtful and engaging strategies for integration. We will update the wiki during and after the session to share with the larger community.
