MSET


 * MSET - April 11th - 13th Maryland Society for Educational Technology **

After attending the conference, gather all the materials you've accumulated and select a session (or sessions) that relates directly to the STEM PBL Unit to share with your peers. You will need to post your reflection on the discussion page of the appropriate conference and also email it to your instructional coach. Please try to reflect on the information that support the themes of the grant, such as, PBL, Web 2.0 tools, GIS, GPS, 21st century skills, etc.

When you post to the discussion board, please include in the subject line: the title of the session, your last name, the grade you teach. You will receive credit for 1.5 professional development hours for one post that addresses the criteria listed below. If you submit a second post on another session according to the criteria listed below, you will receive an additional 1.5 hours (for a maximum of three professional development hours for conference posts). In addition, you are expected to review your colleagues' posts.

Your goal is to share information that you learned at a conference session your colleagues were unable to attend. They are reading your post in order to get ideas to incorporate into their on STEM unit creation and implementation. The information that you provide, as well as your reflection, should be written with this in mind. Your reflection must include the following: [|Link to Discussion]
 * Criteria: **
 * A detailed summary of the session that conveys an in depth understanding of content and its application.
 * A description of how at least one of the strategies or concepts presented could be applied in the classroom to improve student learning.
 * If there was an interdisciplinary approach presented, please briefly explain how this concept could work in multiple content areas.
 * Most sessions will give you a link to the presentation or handouts. **Please include this link, or if handouts were given, please scan them as a .pdf file and post with your reflection**. Your instructional coach should be able to help you with this if you need it. (Remember, most document cameras can work as scanners.)
 * *Copyright*
 * If the handouts are copyrighted, it should be stated on the papers if they are, email the presenter and ask permission to include the handout on the Wiki.
 * If the handouts don't specifically say they are copyrighted, you should still cite from whom and where they came.
