This workshop is for those who dare to Dream, Discover and Inspire students to go beyond the creation of a poster. Presentations are the core pillar of many assessments. In this session we will look at the myriad of possibilities that will inspire students to grow in their depth of knowledge of a subject as they prepare presentations. All of this can be applied to teachers from elementary to high school. A segment is dedicated to the "how to" of podcasting and vodcasting.

This is a time to DREAM. All of these possibilities have been tested and tried in the classroom. Actual classroom examples are used. Almost every software application mentioned in the session is a free download from the internet.
