Ann Arbor goes GIZMO
On May 10 and 11 the Ann Arbor middle and high school science teachers took time off to get familiar with Gizmos and Explorelearning. The two days were pack with lessons on how to use Gizmos, aligning them to daily lessons and making the best of the new technology that the teachers now have.
Some
of the more interesting topics covered included: The relationship between rabbit
populations to snake; What’s the lowest hill that will crack an egg in a zero
friction environmen?; and, of course, viewing a whole moon cycle in a little
under 2 minutes. By the end of each day the teachers were ready to go back into
their building and start putting Gizmo to use with their students.
A special thanks to Linda Ann Prieskorn for making sure all the logistics were taken care of before each day. And thanks to the Ann Arbor teachers for bringing Explorelearning and Gizmos into their district!
