My Sessions at NECC
Very much looking forward to San Antonio!
At this year's WebQuest Birds of a Feather session I've got a nice gift for anyone who attends as well as an opportunity to help the common good by rating existing WebQuests in the database.
Tuesday, 7/1/2008, 4:45pm–5:45pm; Grand Hyatt Lone Star Ballroom C
Share your successes and ideas. Suggest ways in which the format should grow and improve. Show us what you've done. Door prizes, too!
Blog Tag(s): necc, n08s565
And on Wednesday, I'll be sharing some ideas about integrating a crucial thinking skill into teaching across the curriculum. I'm hoping that you'll find it fast-paced, interactive and useful.
Using Authentic Problems to Scaffold Decision-Making Skills
[Session: Spotlight]
Wednesday, 7/2/2008, 10:30am–11:30am; HGCC Lila Cockrell Theatre
Create opportunities for students to practice decision making in math, social studies, and English. We'll present six techniques scaled down from the corporate world.

Hello I’m Michael Roberts on staff at the International Society for Technology in Education. We are in the process of identifying ISTE members who’ll be at the National Education Computing Conference (NECC) , and would be available to have their picture take for marketing collateral, such as membership ads, promotions of webinars, the annual report—and many other print and web pieces.
We wanted to check to see if you are attending NECC, and if you’d be interested in being photographed. We’ll have a professional photographer set up to capture images Sunday June 28th through Tuesday July 1st.
Members who have posed for marketing collateral say it is great to have the recognition from their peers when ISTE materials arrive at school. If you’d like to see an example of how we use the photos, please visit the front page on iste.org—there you’ll see a web ad for NECC featuring three attendees from last year.
It should not take more than 10 minutes to shoot your portrait professionally. We hope you’ll consider participating. As a thank you, we’ll give a $5 Starbucks—plus you’ll have the chance to a face for ISTE in the coming year.
If you are willing to participate, please reply to this message (photo@iste.org.) Once we know you’re amendable, we’ll send out a selection of available slots for shooting, so you can pick a time that works best with your schedule.
The two requirements to be photographed are that you are a current ISTE member and you’re going to be onsite at NECC 2009.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Michael

Great session at Merlot!
I attended your session - but left early to do my own session "Teaching Students How to Think Critically about Complex Situations" - I would love for you to check out the website www.yourtake.org as it is exactly what you are talking about...over 100 authentic situations where kids are asked to sort through information look at different perspectives and make decisions. It uses the proven approach set forth by the corporate Kepner-tregoe folks and provides kids with a collobarative tool to help them through the process. I am a middle school teacher who has helped the Tregoe Education Forum develop the site (along with the help of my students)....the SCAN tool is free for the entire year as we try to get teachers to look at it and evaluate it. I think that it follows along perfectly with what you were trying to get people to do. Take a look and let me know what you think. The FREE activation code to set up a session is TEFFRIEND or if you would like to take a look at the session that we did at the conference during our model classroom session it is at www.yourtake.org/session-1126-1290. I think that the interactive tool can be set up to be used as part of a webquest as you can individualize the sessions that you choose for your class with links and assessments, etc.
