"Have you ever . . ." Techie Experience Graph

On Monday the students answered "Have you ever . . ." prompts related to technology. An excel spreadsheet was projected onto the SmartBoard and we used a wireless keyboard and mouse to input the data. We then generated this graph to show the overall experience of the group in another format.

TechCamp Full Value Contract

On Monday, the students used the SmartBoard in the notebook application to create a Full Value Contract for the week we are together. Each student was allowed to write on the board either something we want in our circle of learning or something that should remain out of the circle.
