Teaching Physics With Technology
with David Strasburger and Jon Jasinski
This webinar is an opportunity to learn more about the upcoming summer workshop June 21-22, 2012. We will explore innovative ideas, effective techniques, and thoughtful plans for incorporating Web-based resources, desktop software packages, and new and emerging technologies into the Physics classroom. Participants will explore examples of the best science-related web sites, and will work with innovative tools to help improve Physics education, such as wikis, embedded maps, graphs, charts, and online social networks.
David Strasburger is Science Department Head, Physics Teacher, and Faculty Evaluation Member at the Noble and Greenough School in Dedham, Massachusetts. Winner of the Vernon L. Greene award for Faculty Excellence, David has a long interest in thoughtful integration of technology into the classroom and in the delicate interface between new, constantly-evolving tools and a teacher's instructional style and goals. He led EdTechTeacher's "Teaching Science with Technology" summer workshop the past two summers and presented at several educational technology events, including the 2008 Teaching with New and Emerging Technologies Conference. A 20-year veteran teacher, David has taught biology, astronomy, and geometry, in addition to Physics.
Jon Jasinski fulfills his passion for teaching at Medway High School in Medway, Massachusetts.
