It was a great group of eager learners in the Thursday afternoon session.
The session I did on Digital Cameras in the Classroom went well this afternoon. About 20 people were very patient with the heat and humidity in the small, non-air-conditioned room for three solid hours. We covered a ton of information, including ways to use the camera in the classroom, as well as basic camera functions, menus, and other controls many had never used before. One of the best parts was the group – asking questions, helping each other where they could, and staying focused the whole time. It was a jam-packed session, and folks stayed right to the very end – and even beyond, to ask questions and go over additional things individually.
If you are curious about using digital cameras in your classroom, check out my slideshare, as well as my wiki with a pdf handout and other information and links you might find helpful.

Special thanks to Shalimar who helped lug in all my stuff for the presentation, stayed to help clean up, AND took the great pictures here on my camera so I could share.
