Demo Slam at North

North Elementary technology coaches Erin Franson, Erin Ryan, and Brenda Baird planned and executed a first-ever "demo slam" at their building during staff workshops.

A demo slam is like an open-mic opportunity for teachers to share what they have learned for the sake of others. Typically, each presenter gets between 30 seconds and five minutes to show something they have been working on, and take a few questions after the fact.

The North slam was held in the commons, and featured several teachers and coaches great tools teachers can use for productivity or for student learning.

Some highlights:


Chad Ruzek shared HaikuDeck, a slideshow app students love.




Nikki Walerius shared Remind, a way to safely connect with parents through texting.




Cathy Norton Shared how she uses Google Forms to help students prepare for the MCA




Diane Vrana shared how Google Forms can be used for student self-assessment
