I'm available to present or keynote at your event on a variety of things, including (but not limited to): education, leadership, technology, and social media branding. Here are a few of the sessions people request most frequently (not an exhaustive list):
Learning Spaces
In this keynote, learn how to utilize the space in your classroom to benefit your students’ needs (and make your class feel like a coffee shop)!
The “Out Of Control” Teacher
In this discussion, we explore why it’s a GOOD thing to be “out of control” in the classroom, and how kids can benefit from self directed learning.
Good Stories vs. Great Stories
This keynote delves into how to build relationships with students and fostering a culture of togetherness.
What to Expect When You Are Expecting (A 1:1 Classroom)
Are your students getting a device next year and you have no idea what to expect? This keynote is for your staff! Whether your students use Chromebooks, Macs, iPads, Blackberries, blueberries or raspberries, we’ll help you through the process.
Uncharted Territory (New To Technology)
This keynote will help reluctant teachers (and even parents) understand the common misconceptions about technology use in the classroom, and model how students can harness mobile devices to their full potential.
Social Media for Teachers & Students
This keynote will help cure the social media woes with practical tips and online best practices when it comes to Twitter, Instagram and Snapchat for use in schools. Instead of blocking them, why not harness their potential for engagement?
Teacher Techapedia
It seems like there's another technology company or tool trying to sap teacher (and district) wallets every minute nowadays. This keynote is a constantly-changing adventure through many exciting free stuff we can use in classrooms and schools.
