 * Member Name || Member Expectations ||
 * John Braglia || The expectation I have for this class is to develop a better working knowledge of the new online products that are being presented, with the intention of infusing some them into my AP course curriculum and sharing those products with the Social Studies department at Conant High School. ||
 * Megan Gabrielson || I hope to find tools that help me with flipping my classroom for next year. ||
 * Mirthala Guerra-Gilkey || I hope to learn enough about what's out there and how I can best use these creation tools in my classroom. If I can walk out of this class (and any other class I'm taking this summer) with useful material to engage my students, then I'll be happy. ||
 * Linda Kowalczyk || I'd like to learn about tools that will help my students create an
 * Jennifer Lange || I am hoping to gain technical knowledge to improve classroom instruction. The kids know about more than many of us adults! ||
 * Jessica Means || My expectation for this course is to expand my knowledge base. I actually signed up because prezi was an option, but I am happy to be introduced to some other tools that will also suit my classroom. I am excited to give them a try and have an outlet for experimentation this summer. ||
 * Lindsay Nustra Karnats || I am hoping to make visually appealing presentations for my classes. Prezi is what drew me to this class, but I'm excited to see many other options. I see some of the other programs becoming a great option for students to present their year-end portfolios. ||
 * Justin Teschner || I am hoping to have a better understanding of how to use the technology that all our students have been using. ||
 * Ronald Theberge || I am looking to gain knowledge in an area that I am NOT real strong in. I hope to be able to use what I have learned and communicate more effectively with my students. ||
