Live Blogging at the Macul Conference

A group of students from the University of Michigan - Master of Arts in Secondary Education (SMAC) attended the Macul conference in Grand Rapids, Michigan. As a participant in this group, I listened to various presenters share their innovative technologies which could be incorporated in the classroom. We also practiced live blogging a session in order to further refine our own technical skills.

Below is a Blog from the session titled "Inquiry in the Lab - Using Probeware to Experience Science". The presenter, Victor Chen, provided information on activities that he successfully incorporated in his classroom utilizing devices such as motion sensors, a pressure monitor (syringe activity) and an interesting site related to science. We hope you enjoy our blog.
