Technology I'm using daily as a School District CIO. This past November I started a new chapter in my career and became the Chief Information Officer (CIO) for the district I was a teacher in for 10 years.

Technology I'm using daily as a School District CIO

It combines my experience as a teacher and educational technology specialist, as well as my 10 years as an engineer and project manager, into one very exciting, busy, crazy, rewarding job. I am responsible for the IT department, as well as coordinating with the data teams and all technology issues and projects. In the past, I've written about the technology I used on a daily basis as a teacher. Today, I want to write about the technology I'm using on a daily basis in my job as CIO and how this technology helps keep me organized, informed, and communicating with others.

Some of it is the same, some different, and some just used differently. - Evernote For Schools Site: Resource for Using Evernote in Education. 0 Comments February 17, 2012 By: David Andrade Feb 17 Written by: 2/17/2012 6:54 AM ShareThis.

My Tribute to Evernote: A Student's Guide

My goal is to reflect what Kierkegaard says, not what I think on the subject. Despite not showing preference, one is not to stop loving their beloved, since to do so would be contradictory as the neighbour is everyone. Only the preferential should be taken out of love, not the love itself. The more preferentially one loves, the further from neighbourly love one gets. Man's kinship is to God, and since God is love and man is to be in God's likeness, man must love as God loves - without prejudice and without distinction. Therefore, the highest love is neighbourly love. Friendship and erotic love require additional objects to love, however neighbourly love has no object, just love. Even non-Christians display Christian love when they shutter at certain forms of distinction (e.g. caste system). However, Christianity - though making all men equal - has not taken away distinctions.

Evernote for Education

The desktop version sync's all of the data to your computer (good for backup) and you can also export your notes in a variety of formats for backup. You can create new notes via desktop, web, or mobile version. You can also use your camera phone or web cam to take a snapshot and Evernote can even recognize the text in the image. This is very useful for capturing signs, posters, printed memos, and more and then being able to search for text inside the image.

How Things Changed With @Evernote. I'll admit it.

How Things Changed With @Evernote

I have to be one of the most unorganized people on the planet. I have notebooks in just about every bag I carry. Multiple calendars and I still miss appointments. Slips of papers as reminders with some string of illegible thoughts on them, that, when I find them, I don't have a clue what I was thinking when I wrote them. I have more than 10 different types of projects going on at anyone time. Organization isn't really in my vocabulary. - Evernote For Schools Site: Resource for Using Evernote in Education.
