What is the story of your total classroom makeover?

Cool Cat Teacher Blog where remarkable teachers learning about teaching

Getting ready for the amazing North Carolina (NCTIES) Conference in Raleigh, North Carolina next Thursday and CUE in Palm Springs, California on Friday!

You know that so much of what is happening is not embodied in any one teacher but in all of us!  It is important to share the stories because this is what motivates teachers of all walks of life to realize that, YES, they CAN change and improve.  They can have the attention of their students again.  The students CAN love to come to school and clamor to get in their class.  It can and is being done.

So, I’m on the hunt for stories.
YOUR STORY!!

If you’ve never commented on a blog, now’s your chance, consider this a virtual tap on the shoulder.

So, my question to you is,

What is your story?  How have you made over your classroom using technology and what are the impacts you’ve seen?

Please post your story or a link to your video, your words, or anything you have to share that should be told to teachers.  Some of these WILL be used at either NCTIES or CUE next week.

Thank you for the great things you’ve done for me and my life.  Truly, blogging has blessed me in so many ways but it is because of being  a PART Of something bigger than myself.  No one teacher can embody or represent ALL other teachers, but as each of us get the opportunity to share our story, we can take along, like a portfolio, the great stories of other teachers too!

So, please share!  And if you share, if you are able to share your school, grade level, subject area(s),  and location in the world, that would be great also!  This blog post and your answers WILL become part of the presentations next week.  Thank you!

(Oh, and NCTIES teachers, consider taking the video challenge too!  You may see yourself on the big screen at the Thursday keynote!)

Vicki Davis

Vicki Davis has been an educator and IT director in Georgia since 2002. Today, she also works as an instructional technology coach, staying side-by-side with active teachers and students so her work stays grounded in real classrooms.

She's a mom of three, wife of one, and loves talking about the wise, transformational use of technology for teaching and doing good in the world.

She has blogged at the Cool Cat Teacher Blog since 2005 and hosts the 10 Minute Teacher Podcast and Cool Cat Teacher Talk (radio, public access TV, YouTube, and all major podcast platforms), interviewing remarkable educators around the world. Vicki focuses on what unites us — a quest for truly remarkable, life-changing teaching and learning. The goal of her work is to provide actionable, encouraging, relevant ideas for teachers, grounded in truth and shared with love.

If you talk to Vicki for long, she'll encourage you to "Relate to Educate," to "innovate like a turtle," or to be "a remarkable teacher." She loves homemade sourdough bread and cinnamon rolls and runs half marathons with her sisters. You can usually find her laughing with her students or digging into a book.

Thank you for reading, sharing, and telling your friends about the work we do here! - Vicki
