a. Participate in local and global learning communities to explore creative applications of technology to improve student learningReaching out to, and interacting with, a variety of technology practitioners and leaders throughout the world has been an invaluable experience that has shaped my teaching practice and made me a more enthusiastic and innovative teacher. I participate in our district's BYOD teacher training program, which provides me with simple, practical solutions for my classroom as well as a chance to collaborate with other district teachers on technology matters. I have also participated in EdCamp Global, where I interacted with educators around the world through classes and discussion boards. Artifact 1 is a project another BYOD participant and I worked on at one of our first meetings. Artifact 2 is my reflection statement for EdCamp Global.
