"I enjoyed your presentation and got some great ideas. I felt that you made the idea of using technology not so scary for those of us who don't use it."
Tricia Pierce

"I enjoyed the workshop-- You obviously know pre-K and the way you taught us mirrors your teaching skills."
Candie Wright

"I didn't really want to come today because I would've much rather been in my classroom. However, within 10-15 minutes of the beginning, I began changing my mind and was hooked within 30 minutes. Thanks for making the day fun (and funny). You eased a lot of boredom and I'm just not talking about myself. The information you presented was very helpful to me and my classroom. I got lots of great ideas for integrating technology. I'd not thought of giving the camera to the children, and so many other ideas! Thanks"... Sandie

"I enjoyed your ideas of application in the classroom. You were very personable and knowledgeable. I especially enjoyed your enthusiasm toward children and that you have actually been in the classroom." Susan Montagne

"Thank you for putting ideas into my head! I have always wanted to implement slide shows, etc. into my school year and until now I had no idea it could be so easy. I can't wait to install some of these programs both at home and school. I think my own children will love movie making, etc. Thank you!"

Workshops and Keynotes by Warren Buckleitner

Here's a list of workshops designed for school inservice, preschool and elementary teachers, children's librarians, parent technology nights.

The preferred audience is technology coordinators and teachers (preschool through elementary).

Workshops feature the latest technology and gadgets, and when possible, include hands on demonstrations.

Topics

* Supporting School Subjects with Technology. A good place to start; this workshop provides an overview on the latest web sites, software, hardware and techniques; applied to math, reading, science and social studies.

* "Googlizing" your Classroom. We'll take a closer look at Google, Google tools and Google docs, and discuss how you can use them to support your existing curriculum.

* A Video Game Primer for Educators. Do you know the difference between a Wii and a PS3? You will after this workshop. The educational potential of games -- and their realistic limitations for classroom use -- will be discussed.

* Increasing Teacher Productivity with Technology. A carpenter is useless without his or her tools. Likewise, a teacher with the right tools is more effective than one without digital knowledge and tools; like the Internet, digital camera, video editing and so on. I'll demonstrate in order to effectively do his or her job.

Logistics, Prices and Details
$1000 per day, plus expenses.

Materials Needed: Most workshops need an auditorium or classroom equipped with a large table, a projection screen and sound system. A microphone is required for groups over 40 and a piano is nice, but not required. Participants should sit facing the front of the room, but may be asked to gather in small groups on occasions. Some workshops may require access to a computer lab with working Internet stations.
