From noon til 1pm each Wednesday and Friday in the Library Computing Commons (room 155), we will offer drop-in workshop sessions about particular topics of interest to TC’s and Faculty alike. We hope you take advantage of one of these sessions to further develop your ease with and understanding of technology integration.
A schedule of sessions offered (as well as other drop in opportunities) can be found on the Calendar tab or linked here.

Did you know that each district has a variety of online learning resources available… you just need to know where to look on the District Website. You’ll also need passwords for some of these – your SA, school administrator, or librarian should be able to help with this.
A teaser for our upcoming ‘lesson planning’ resources Sandbox Sessions…
Surrey School District’s site for online Resources.

Storytelling tools – some of the links on this site are no longer active unfortunately, but still, many good sites for online/cloud based story creation:
StoryTools
Screencastr is a digital storytelling tool that is easy to use. It is a web based screen recorder. It allows you to create an instruction session or an artefact in minutes. An example of a screen cast that I made and then loaded into Youtube was a Prezi I created with narration. Please look at UBC Education Library Instruction Report.
I just came across this website with some excellent Hook examples and links. Check it out!
