 * __@Communication and Collaboration Tools__** In today's global society, communication and collaboration is critical. We will investigate various communication and collaboration tools that can be incorporated into your classroom. Be ready to share your ideas, too.

__**@Using Audacity and iTunes**__ See the exciting videos and podcasts that iTunes has to offer. Find out how to create playlists with music and videos. All of these video and podcasts are completely free! Also, learn how to use Audacity to record students or yourself. You'll be able to show how students' reading and verbal skills have improved throughout the year. Use Audacity to record sights word lists or oral reports then burn them to a CD.

12:30-3:30 __**@Webquests**__ A WebQuest is an inquiry-oriented lesson format in which most or all the information that learners work with comes from the web. First, we will "work smarter, not harder" by investigating webquests already available. Then, we will learn about how you can create your own.

__**@Top Websites**__ Find out about some of the top websites to use with your students with a projector or in the computer lab. They are all completely free and most don't require an account or login.
