MassCUE 2018

#massCUE18

I had the privilege of attending and presenting at MassCUE this year.  Each year, Massachusetts Computer Using Educators has their annual conference at Gillette Stadium in Foxboro, MA.

"MassCUE is a resource-rich, vibrant network of educators providing New England's premier educational technology conference as well as ongoing, high-quality professional learning opportunities, including specialized webinars, workshops, camps, onsite learning tours and more."  (Source)

The Keynote Speaker this year was Tom Murray from "Future Ready Schools".  He was so inspirational!  These his speech reiterated the importance of being present for our students, building relationships and the importance of personalizing learning.

There were so many amazing presenters at MassCUE.  The workshops ranged from STEM learning to using technology for Social Emotional Learning.  The workshops that I participated in were about Makerspaces, G-Suite for education, Tech Coaching, and Augmented & Virtual Reality.

I presented two workshops at MassCUE 18 with two of my colleagues, Louise Kennedy and Eileen Mulligan.  Our first session was "Using Seesaw Across the Early Elementary Curriculum to Increase Student Engagement and Parent Communication."

Here's our Seesaw presentation -



Louise Kennedy, Eileen Mulligan and I also presented "Going Global! Mystery Location Skypes/Hangouts in the Elementary Classroom".

The Tri-town School System allowed many of us to attend MassCUE 18.  Learning is so much better when you have others to collaborate and communicate with.  Thank you!
