What are some of your best tips for successful teacher technology training?

7/5/06 I find that hands-on seems to work best. Sometimes we just don't have time for it - we have to give them the info and hope they can figure it out later when they're alone. I find that a step-by-step guide will help for this. But a hands-on exercise will ensure that most participants can manage a new skill and ask questions if they don't understand.

Also, one thing that I am doing more of is "follow-up" - after a training class, I will contact the participants by email to see if they need any one-on-one follow-up. Sometimes, it takes me a while to get back to them, but I try to work in this one-on-one time. ~Rhonda Clark
