Technology in Action: AVI CHAI’s Educational Technology Experiments Grantees
Be sure to take a look at AVI CHAI’s Educational Technology Experiments blog. The current cohort of AVI CHAI technology grant recipients is using the blog to post about their experiences as they move their projects from proposal concept to reality.
Projects include: using digital cameras, laptops, and computer projectors to enhance Jewish learning; developing customizable software for Jewish text studies; integrating Bible and ancient history studies; creating Hebrew language articles and integrating Hebrew into school presentations; enhancing prayer and siddur skills; establishing a digital school system; integrating Tablet PCs and SMARTBoards into Judaic studies; creating webcasts, podcasts, slideshows, and videos for the school community; technology planning and implementation; and more…
These postings provide important insights into educational project development. They also serve to showcase the variety of projects that are being piloted. Most importantly, the postings celebrate the talents and visions of Jewish day school educators in North America who are so willing to share their experiences with others.
New entries are posted periodically, so check in regularly, or better yet, add the AVI CHAI blog to your aggregator.
