SAMR Model Presentation

Mike Glennon

The document discusses the SAMR model of technology integration. The SAMR model proposes four levels of technology use in education - substitution, augmentation, modification, and redefinition. At the substitution level, technology acts as a direct substitute with no functional change. Higher levels involve using technology to significantly redesign tasks and create new tasks previously inconceivable. Examples are given such as using a word processor instead of pen and paper (substitution), online research tools allowing for more in-depth exploration than print resources (augmentation), using comments and annotations features for collaborative work (modification), and real-time collaborative documents and projects (redefinition).

Recording with QuickTime

Mike Glennon

This document provides instructions for recording audio, screen, or video using QuickTime on a Mac.

The final steps describe sharing the presentation by clicking the share icon, adding a description and category, copying the link to paste into a discussion board for others to view, or exporting the Haiku Deck to open in other programs like PowerPoint or as a PDF file.

The document provides step-by-step instructions for finding fonts online, decompressing zipped font files, locating and installing actual font files, and verifying the new fonts are available in font selection menus after installation.

Google Apps for Education

Mike Glennon

Google Apps for Education (GAFE) provides instant collaboration and data gathering across devices. Users have separate private and public accounts - private is for administrative documents and student work between HCPSS staff and students only, while public can be shared outside HCPSS but items can't be shared from public to private. It's best to use different web browsers for personal and GAFE accounts to avoid signing into the wrong one. GAFE works well with Chrome and HCPSS users are directed to hcpss.me for more information.

Word 2008 Notebook Layout

Mike Glennon

Notebook Layout is a different way to use Microsoft Word that allows typing and drawing just like using a pen in a notebook. It has special tools like different pen thicknesses, colors, and an eraser for scribbles. Audio recording is also supported to add voice notes that can be played back by clicking a speaker icon when moving the mouse over labeled text. The notebook layout provides a more natural experience for taking daily technical notes compared to the normal Word layout.

File management

Mike Glennon

This document provides tips for organizing files on a computer. It explains that the desktop is like the top of a physical desk, where you may keep a few files but it can get cluttered. Instead, the computer uses folders to help organize files, with folders able to contain other subfolders. When saving a new file, it's best to store it in the Documents folder, which is like a drawer in the desk, to keep files organized by project or topic. The document also outlines different storage locations for files including on the local computer, a school network, or removable flash drive.

Content Filtering Pilot Presentation

Mike Glennon

This document provides information about a content filtering pilot program for Howard County Public School System (HCPSS). It discusses selecting appropriate digital content for instruction, guidelines for content evaluation, using the content filter bypass to access streaming media sites, and best practices for integrating media into lessons. The goals of the pilot are to study the effect of opening streaming sites for teachers and evaluate the impact on the network and service requests. Teachers are instructed on the steps to login to the content filter to access blocked sites and who to contact for help with any issues.

Simple Interest vs. Compound Interest

Mike Glennon

Mr. Glennon presented a document on budgeting that warns about the dangers of credit card debt, especially compound interest. It explains that while credit cards may seem like a way to get things now and pay later, the interest charges can quickly accumulate over time. Compound interest works by charging interest on both the principal amount borrowed and on previously accumulated interest, causing balances to grow rapidly. The document urges careful consideration of interest rates and repayment plans before taking on credit card debt.

File Management: Mac Network Folder

Mike Glennon

Mike Glennon presented a document on file management and saving to network folders. The document instructs users to click "File" then "Save As" and select the blue square with an arrow icon to expand the window. It advises clicking the second option under "Shared" to save to the HomeDir$ network folder, which represents the user's personal network folder that can be accessed from any computer. It notes that when viewing the network folder in the dock, it will display the user's initial and last name, but warns that the local home folder with the same name is only located on the individual computer and is not a network folder.

Beyond the Advance Presentation for By the Book 9

John Rodzvilla

In June 2020, L.L. McKinney, a Black author of young adult novels, began the #publishingpaidme hashtag to create a discussion on how the publishing industry treats Black authors: “what they’re paid. What the marketing is. How the books are treated. How one Black book not reaching its parameters casts a shadow on all Black books and all Black authors, and that’s not the same for our white counterparts.” (Grady 2020) McKinney’s call resulted in an online discussion across 65,000 tweets between authors of all races and the creation of a Google spreadsheet that collected information on over 2,000 titles. While the conversation was originally meant to discuss the ethical value of book publishing, it became an economic assessment by authors of how publishers treated authors of color and women authors without a full analysis of the data collected. This paper would present the data collected from relevant tweets and the Google database to show not only the range of advances among participating authors split out by their race, gender, sexual orientation and the genre of their work, but also the publishers’ treatment of their titles in terms of deal announcements and pre-pub attention in industry publications. The paper is based on a multi-year project of cleaning and evaluating the collected data to assess what it reveals about the habits and strategies of American publishers in acquiring and promoting titles from a diverse group of authors across the literary, non-fiction, children’s, mystery, romance, and SFF genres.
