This wiki will be a sort of hub for all middle school and high school interns. It will be used to keep track of the work you are doing and as a way to communicate with the teachers working with you. Please feel free to add pages as you see fit and use this site in a way that helps you be more efficient and organized.

=Contact/Questions= Please contact Andrew Halter ANY TIME at halter@ht-sd.org or call him at 724-766-9092 with any questions =Resources= We have a few in house resources that might help you as you look for ways to assist teachers. These are also places for you to contribute your knowledge and experience. =Things To Do When Not Specifially Assigned to a Task:= =Tracking Your Work= As you work with teachers, it is important for you to keep track of whom you work with and what is being done. This will help us identify areas of strengths and needs as we move forward and design professional development around technology use. Please use the form below to track any and all of the work that you do for the middle school and high school. Please fill this out every day and for every task you complete. THANK YOU!!
 * The Digital Shift-- a growing resource of tips, tools and examples for 21st century learning. If there is a particular area that is missing or that you feel you can contribute to, please feel free to contribute, just check with Andrew first.
 * Start Up Sheets-- part of The Digital Shift pages, these quick start sheets are for teachers using digital tools like Glogster, Animoto, and many more for the first time. If you are using a tool with a teacher and there is no start-up sheet, this is a good thing for you to work on. If you do design a Start Up Sheet, please keep it in similar format and email it to Andrew when finished.
 * CFF Resource Page--another resource with links to many digital tools and teacher examples. This page is the earlier version of The Digital Shift, and has many of the same resources, plus more. Currently, we are not adding to this resource.
 * Bagotricks--this is a Hampton blog about best practices going on in our district. If you have an idea for a post, please let me know.
 * Tools4Students--this is a resource FOR STUDENTS who are doing tech-based projects. It is full of tips and tutorials for most of our popular tools. When you are not working with teachers, this is a great place to contribute. Remember, this resource is student centered, so it should contain student friendly language and give them advice on using tools effectively.
 * Send out a Tech Tip of The Day to teachers---maybe a useful website, smartboard tip, an app they might use, etc. This can be sent to specific content areas or to the whole faculty. Please email Andrew (halter@ht-sd.org or Gwen (cohen@ht-sd.org) and they will relay it to the staff. This might be a good way to drum up some business for yourselves as well!
