On Thursday of the DEN LC Symposium, we took a break from Bentley University and took a field trip via trolley to downtown Boston. There, we attended the Building Learning Communities conference, put on by November Learning. A couple of DEN STARS, Lee Kolbert and Teryl Magee were presenting [...]

The night before, Steve Dembo asked the attendees to ask for topics of discussion that they thought would be interesting to learning more about. Steve mentioned that those coming up and suggesting ideas would also be the people who would [...]

I’m at the Discovery Educator Network Leadership Symposium this week just outside of Boston with about 75 other educators from across the country. Our “base camp” is Bentley University. Most of our time will be spent here participating in a variety of professional development activities. We will, however, take a trip to the Building Learning [...]

I’m still processing ISTE. There have been lots of recap blog posts in the last couple of days and I want to point out a couple that caught me eye. Here are some:

I’m trying a new Plugin today called Snap Shots. I’m not sure if it’s going to be more beneficial or more annoying. Feel free to let me know.

In my first post about ISTE Sunday, I left out one important event – the keynote. I didn’t watch the keynote in the large auditorium. I chose, instead, to watch the keynote with a bunch of my friends in the Bloggers’ Cafe. Rather than go into quite a bit of detail about my thoughts, I’ll [...]

ISTE Sunday – kind of sounds like a holiday doesn’t it? This year, I signed up to attend Gary Stager’s Constructivist Consortium. This was a day long event held at Maggiano’s in Denver. For a modest fee, we could spend the day with Gary, have some discussions about creativity in the classroom, [...]

Yep, this is kind of a sneak preview of what I plan on doing here in the next several days.
A blog post about our school in the Pepsi Refresh Project. One of our kindergarten teachers submitted the proposal and voting takes place throughout the month of July. We could use your help – vote here.
Sunday [...]

Choices, choices, choices. ISTE is about choices. Whether you’re talking about which sessions to attend during the day, where to eat, or what evening social to attend, the decisions are difficult. Saturday was the first day where choices had to be made. For me, the choice I had to make was [...]

Well, I’ve made it to Denver for ISTE, which not everyone can say just yet. Our condo is really nice, we have a great view of Coors Field from one of the windows (see the picture to the right), and I’m looking forward to the fun times we’re going to have together. It’s going to be [...]

My name is Chad Lehman. I'm currently an Elementary Library Media Specialist. I spent eight years teaching third grade prior to moving to the school library. When I'm not at school, I'm probably online, playing or watching sports, or driving my two kids to one of their activities.
