Building Community

We created a promotional video for our summer teacher Chromebook Academy - Chromebook Preppers. The academy had a Zombie Apocolypse theme and was the second academy we created/taught. 

(Our first academy had a Games of Thrones theme entitled "Google is Coming" and introduced the move to one-to-one Chromebooks with students.)

As Lead Learning Technology Coach I was responsible for creating, staffing, advertising, and crediting attendance for the professional development academies.

2013 BISD Convocation - For Those About to Teach We Salute You

I helped plan the 2013 rock and roll convocation teacher assembly. Our new superintendent wanted to make a big splash so I rewrote the songs for the administrators from central office and our campuses to record and lip sync. I arranged for the superintendent to ride into the event on my husband's Harley (you'll see him take it out of the gym as a "roadie" in the film), and I even had to step in and sing the last song when someone couldn't show up.

BISD Welcome Back Videos

For a couple of years I created welcome back videos for the teachers in collaboration with the Communications department. Eventually they became a tradition and the district hired professional videographers to create much better quality videos. But I'm proud to say that I was a part of starting the tradition.

BISD Convocation Flash Mob

With a zero budget to run Convocation, I was tasked with coming up with something engaging for the event. I sent out secret emails throughout the district recruiting teachers and students...and created a Flash Mob to end the event! I even got to kick it off!
