CHS Hosts Student-Led Technology Conference

ipadcalc.JPGOn Friday December 19th, Chadron High School students will be taking part in a fun and innovative end of their semester.  They will be hosting and running their very own student-led technology conference.  


The idea came about when a student tech day was being highlighted on Twitter and teachers took note of it.  CHS successfully implemented a 1:1 iPad initiative for students in grades 9-12 in December of 2012.  Teachers have been attending technology conferences for several years and felt that students would benefit from their own conference by learning new ways to utilize technology as an educational tool.

The day will begin in the auditorium with a keynote speaker followed by four sessions throughout the morning.  Each of the four sessions will have seven choices of presentations for students to attend.  There are 20 CHS students who will be presenting to their peers concerning apps and websites that are used in the classroom such as organizing Google Drive, Prezi, Haiku Deck, Nearpod, Animoto, In Class, My Fitness Pal, Home Design, ACT prep apps, and even a graduate panel.
