Add Me as a Friend!
Minisink Valley Middle School
Class Information:
Room Number: 244
Students per Class: Depends on class
Class Description:
I co-teach with teachers to support them in their use of technology. We have both pc's and macs in the district depending on the building and classroom you go to.
Position:
Tech Ed Specialist
Needs:
Digital cameras would be a great addition to our technology equipment. Right now there are a limited amount of cameras in the district and one is not always available when needed. We would like to be able to add digital photos to the various projects we work on. One idea we have is to create videos for individual projects from still pictures using Photo Story 3.
