Today another teacher and I provided in-service training to fellow teachers. Whew, am I tired. At first, I thought we were going to have about a 4 hour session. Then it was cut down to 2 hours. So we were going to split it to have about an hour’s worth of information each. Well, this morning we realized that with the time constraints we would actually have about 30-35 minutes each. This was definitely not enough time! I started talking and couldn’t quit because I had planned too much. I had really wanted the teachers to go out onto the web and explore all the different software that I had suggested. But that was not to be. I felt like I hadn’t done an adequate job because I didn’t have enough time for them to play. However, maybe there will be more opportunities in which to dig deeper into specific content that can be utilized. At least I will have a few days to recover from all this excitement.
