In June of 2011, Canby School District decided to interview staff and film some students using iPod touch and iPad devices in the classroom. In the past year, we hosted hundreds of visitors to our buildings, and are set to do the same this year. For those folks who just can't make the journey, we've posted the videos of staff and students to give you a better idea of what it looks like.

Editor's Note: Below is the fifth installment in a NEW guest post series by Bill Jackson, former math teacher who presently provides consulting and teacher training on Singapore or Japanese approaches to mathematics teaching and professional development. Here we are featuring "Lessons Learned" from Jackson's most recent Spring 2012 trip to Singapore during the International Conference on Teaching and Learning with Technology (ICTLT), and the Ministry of Education (MOE) Excel Fest. While this series emphasizes the technology angle in education most expressly, we cannot help but see certain non-tech (and tech) similarities to Finland's much-admired school system and overt differences to the U.S. system, which is troubling to say the least.

There are many things I’ll detail over the course of the year, but there is one thing sticking out right now, and I must share it with you in case you are considering a similar 1:1 project: Each of our students and staff members has a Google Apps for Education account to create documents, collaborate online, and communicate. Since they submit many projects and lessons through email, they have the ability to email teachers.
