Proposal summary

Purpose & objective

The main goal of my presentation is to encourge early education teachers to use technology to improve learning. I am going to present many interesting projects developed at our school where we incorporated digital tools to create enganging and fun projects for the students.
Participants will have access to easy and affordable tools to use in their daily practices.
The big evidence of success is the students outcomes.

Supporting research

I am applying researches, and knowledges from my ISTE Certified Educator course , also some insights from books like "Reality Bites"from Micah Shippee PHD, Christine Lion-Bailey ( one of the projects I am going to present was mentioned in this book). Another book that gave me some ideas was "Creating Innovators "- Tony Wagner.
