Hello Peirce Staff,
I am hoping this technology blog will be a helpful place for you to learn about new technology, brush up on technology that you may not have used in awhile, book a time to work with me as well as sign out the computer carts. Often times when I am planning at home and want to use the computers with my class I will wish I could check the schedule to see if a cart is available. Now we can! To sign up for a time (either to use a cart or to work with me) you must be signed in to google docs, whether through your NPS Google Docs account or through your own personal GMail account. Once logged in, click the Google Calendars image in the bottom right corner of the calendar you are trying to access. This will open the calendar up full screen. Click on the time slot you would like to book. Fill in the information and click "create event". Once you have created your event please look back at the calendar to be sure it has been applied.
If you are booking time to work with me on a collaborative technology lesson, please also send me an email telling me what you'd like to work on and a time you would like to get together and plan for the lesson. Please note that my technology time is split between Monday and Tuesday mornings this year. I am at Peirce on Mondays until 12 and on Tuesdays my schedule also includes trainings and meetings, so the time varies weekly.
Please note that we also have two school "mini-carts" which each contain 5 new Macbooks. These carts are housed in Martha's room and Sydney/Leslie's room. Online sign up for the mini carts will be coming soon.
