Pack your bags...Another adventure awaits!

Welcome back, friends!  It's been a while since we sat down together and visited, so let's not waste any time catching up and let's jump right in to our next exciting venture!  While we were gone, the Internet continued to expand at an exponential rate and now, we've got a whole new set of tools to use to promote 21st Century learning to our 21st Century kids!!

HEB-The Next 23 will focus on a variety of technologies that can be used in the classroom by students and teachers.  Web 2.1 (the next generation) classroom tools, presentation tools, and productivity tools will be the key components of this next trip.  We will look at a variety of ways to increase student engagement and hopefully discover some new tools for us to use as well.  As we did in HEB23, we will blog about our experiences, adventures in 2.1 land and other interesting places as we learn. 

Once again, we thank Helen Blowers and the fabulous staff at the Charlotte and Mecklenburg County (VA) Public Library for the opportunity to adapt their 2.1 program to meet the needs of HEBISD.  Also, Common Craft again graciously

So, pack your bags, and let's take a trip to HEB-The Next 23!
