My Learning Space

Hello everyone. I'm Dennis Grice, a school technology coordinator at St. John's Lutheran School in Orange, CA, USA. (Only a few miles away from Disneyland.) My day is split between working with students and working with teachers to help them integrate technology into their lessons and curriculum. My focus this year has been on creativity, emphasizing the use of digital storytelling tools like PhotoStory3, Voicethread, and MovieMaker.
I'm also spending a lot of time training our 6th Grade teachers (6th grade would be 11 & 12 year olds) to get them ready for next Fall when every 6th grade student will have a TabletPC. We're studying the new ISTE NETS for Students (http://www.iste.org/Content/NavigationMenu/NETS/For_Students/NETS_S...) and working to integrate them into student projects and assignments. I also hope to help our teachers develop their own personal learning networks using tools like Twitter, Skype, and Ning, and connecting them with organizations like the DEN, CUE (www.cue.org), and ISTE.
