Reach for the Stars Using Media in Your Classroom

These are slides for the keynote address, "Reach for the Stars Using Media in Your Classroom," shared by Wesley Fryer on September 28, 2011, in Concord, New Hampshire. This presentation was shared for a gathering celebrating the 30th anniversary of NHSTE (New Hampshire's Affiliate of the International Society for Technology in Education) at the McAuliffe-Shepard Discovery Center in Concord. The presentation focuses on our obligations to be multimedia communicators as educators, the basics of "Playing with Media," and examples of outstanding student media projects from New Hampshire students. Amidst a continuing barrage of exciting new technologies like the Apple iPad, Amazon Fire and Google Chromebook, the right question to ask is NOT, "Should we buy X device for our students?" The right question to ask is, "What do we want our students to DO with the tool we buy?"
