Implementation of Materials
Here is where examples of the tools / skills being used in the classroom during the 2012-13 school year will be displayed. Ideally, there would be video clips of teachers and students engaged in the use of these tools, but there may also be video explanations / reactions from both teachers and students about why the tool that was used was effective.
