Improve my technology skills

A few ways to improve my technology skills would be to use the resources that I have. I have a lot of friends who work on computers all day long. Some edit video some write software. I could pick their brains every now and again. I have technology in my classroom that I don't know how to use. I know the district has professional development days to learn these technologies. I'm not sure how or when they are offered, but I do know they are offered every now and again. I actually would really like to go to these. I wish the district would let you know when these were offered and what all is offered through out the year. Another way would be to get on the internet and just search our information about different programs. There is a lot of information on the internet. I might as well take advantage of it. I probably could get some information about the mobi and smartboard just by googling it.
