EdCampOKC

What’s your first and last name?

• Jason Redman

What do you teach / what is your ‘title’ at school?

• Digital Sales Manager @ Barnes & Noble, iOS, android, emerging technologies @ MetroTech

How are you involved in education?

• I was the technology mentor for the Oklahoma ArtScience Prize last year. I just started a non profit called HOPE for soap that works to bring bare essentials to victims of domestic violence. I am an Adjunct professor at MetroTech springlake as well as Platt college. I also am a digital manager for Barnes and Noble and have helped various schools to ontegrate NOOK devices into their classrooms.

What does your ideal school or classroom look like?

• A class where learning, teaching, and understanding are not limited by technology or those using it. I believe that education and true learning are not always taught by the teacher, but should be a collaborative effort between teacher and student.

If you were to lead a session at Edcamp, what would it be about?

• Integrating technology in the classroom. Discussion and Q&A about advantages and disadvantages of tablets, laptops, etc. open discussion about what is REALLY needed to fix our education system (and in my opinion it’s not more technology)

What does your ideal school or classroom look like?

What’s your first and last name?

• Linda Clark

What do you teach / what is your ‘title’ at school?

• Special Education

How are you involved in education?

• I am a co-teacher who brings real life examples into each classroom I step into. Our students can hear our words, but do they know what they mean? I feel it is my job to help all students “SEE” what my words mean in their life.

What does your ideal school or classroom look like?

• Actively, involved in whatever subject that is in front of them. “Experience” stations are big in my math class, where each student gets an opportunity to touch, see, and experience how to make it real for each student. I want to see more “project” based learning in my classroom.

If you were to lead a session at Edcamp, what would it be about?

• Paper slide video – every student can demonstrate what they know regardless of their learning level. They are easy and FUN!

What’s your first and last name?

• Diane Keeton

What do you teach / what is your ‘title’ at school?

• 5th grade Science

How are you involved in education?

• How am I not? My colleagues will tell you, I spend too much time at school. I enjoy my “prep” time, coming up with new ideas and activities for my students to make them think about what they are learning. I used to be ready with answers, now I’m ready with questions for them to find the answers. I love the technology direction of our school (which is not to say I good at making it all happen); I enjoy the process of learning and how it will encourage my students to be problem solvers instead of problem creators.

What does your ideal school or classroom look like?

• Ideally, my classroom would be students teaching one another, helping one another, and taking responsibility for their own learning. I am very interested in the flipped classroom to see how it works.Students actively discussing and problem solving would be wonderful.

If you were to lead a session at Edcamp, what would it be about?

• Google folders for student’s work.
