Thanks to all of you that attended my sessions today at AIMA’s Annual Conference at Spain Park High School.  I hope that you got some information that you can use at your school with your teachers and students.  We talked today about using digital photography and other digital content in your curriculum.  I hope that as you collaborate with classroom teachers, you create some great opportunities for your students to demonstrate what they have learned.  I have added the links and handouts that you requested.  Let me know if you have any other questions.  If your students create something great or you develop a lesson that goes well, please let me know.  I love to hear when things work for you!  Enjoy.  Let me know what you would like to learn about next year!
