Unconference takeaways

Each of the the last 2 years have have enjoyed and learned from my unconference experience.  I always enjoy the camaraderie of the Lindbergh staff and information shared within.  This year I attended an Intro to Pinterest as it has been the topic of lots of lunchroom banter over the last year.  While I was impressed with the visual ease of viewing and pinning things, I realized I could easily get lost in it all and therefore had previously resisted.   The other course I attended was a Moodle course, as I had not yet created a Moodle since the new version was implemented.  Moodle is always an enlightening experience, as the potential for and uses of are limitless.  I want to use it initially as yearly planbook of materials, especially as the Math department enters a curriculum writing year.  I figure this would be an ideal year to create a new moodle as we shift to new curriculum and new  CCSS standards.  I can simply drop lesson plans notes, videos, powerpoints, and all other resources in there as I find and use them.  I feel with Moodle I can finally have all resources combined in a single location.
