• Check with your principal, team leader, or another administrator to see whether policies or requirements have changed regarding classroom technology use.
• Investigate in-service technology workshops or training sessions, especially those geared to your content area.
• If your school or district does not provide their own tech staff development, check libraries, universities, community centers, or even local computer stores for free classes on hardware and/or software topics.
• Find out whether such workshops will fulfill professional development hours required by your school, accrediting agency, or state-licensing program.
• Check with professional education organizations to learn about local, state, or national conventions with an emphasis on technology. Don't forget to visit Education World's Conventions and Conferences area for a listing of some of the year's best conferences!
