Each year, the Michigan Association of Computer Users In Learning recognizes exemplary leadership in classroom teaching with technology and building and district technology leadership. Three categories are awarded: Outstanding Educator of the Year, Outstanding Teacher of the Year and Technology Coordinator of the Year. Do you have a colleague or staff member who stands out and should be considered for these awards? The MACUL Outstanding Leader Program is a perfect opportunity to recognize great work and contributions to your school and district. The SMARTer Kids Foundation will be donating a $14,000 prize package to the winners in the Outstanding Educator and Teacher categories. The prize package includes a SMART board, digital projector, airliner wireless slate and student response system.

Information and applications can be found at http://www.macul.org/grantsawards/200910maculawardinformation/
Deadline for the 2010 awards is Friday, January 8, 2010. For more information, contact Ieva Kule in the MACUL office at ikule@macul.org

Sounds like you will be quite busy this semester. That's great about the 16 exchange students. I have a few each year. Yes, we all will have to keep things clean in our labs this year. Here is a photo of my updated Multimedia lab with new iMacs.

Here at Quincy HS, school is just about to begin as is the case throughout the state. This trimester, I find a few new classes I will teach with lots of students. We are offering a class in digital imaging that will have two sections this first tri, and one section of web design. I am splitting yearbook production to include both the hard copy yearbook (traditional) as well as the video part (the DVD) of the book that is included each and every year. Our enrollment in the district seems to be up(at least in the 5th and 3rd grades). What is great is that the high school will have 16 exchange students from South America, Europe and Asia. What an excellent way to bring diversity to the high school. Have a wonderful year. When is the fall workshop and thanks for the tip on Clorox wipes- just signed up to receive some free.

As far as Ms Fisher, would still like to see some information on adobe Premiere Pro or Lightroom-- thanks
