Presentations & Workshops

I am a firm believer that we are better when we take the opportunity to learn from one another. Collaborating and sharing resources is a great way to reflect on our practice as well as spark conversations around best practices when working with students and other educators. I have been fortunate to have the privilege of sharing my work in the classroom with other Educators in Ontario.

Below are some of the presentations that I've done. Take a look and touch base if you're interested in finding out more information.

The New Google Sites is here and available for everyone!

Here is the link to the site that I created.

In this workshop, you will have the opportunity to build your own site and check out some of the great features that make the new sites more user friendly.

Also, you will be able to see how students are using the sites in their classroom as portfolios and to share their passions with the world.

Breakouts and Escape Rooms are all the rage these days.

In this workshop, you will learn how to use Google Slides to create your own fun and interactive breakout for students to demonstrate their knowledge about a unit or a particular area of study.

Canada 150

Statistics Canada confirmed that in 2014, over 2.7 million Canadians were self-employed. The reality for our students is that many will choose to create their own careers by means of Entrepreneurship. Some of the jobs or careers they will embark upon haven’t yet been created or even thought of. Entrepreneurial Thinking is a mindset fuelled by the desire to solve problems and create effective solutions. In this workshop, learn how to use the tools of E-thinking and Inquiry to engage students in identifying and solving authentic problems through the incorporation of STEM. Learn the “why” behind class projects and the value that can come from using the elements of e-thinking in rich tasks. As educators, we have the ability to support our students by equipping them with the skills to identify problems, create incredible solutions through STEM and possibly change the world. Why not start now?
