NAGC Session: Speed Geeking Notes

I missed this awesome session, but thanks to another amazing person that I met by happenstance I was able to see the notes from the session. Below are the notes of Faye Hanson. She is awesome and she agreed to let me post these notes.

I have not had time to test these ideas and projects out so I would really love it if you have any experience or other suggestions to please leave a comment. I am always looking for new ideas and projects to engage my students. This list is loaded with super AWESOMESAUCE! I just need an extra day in my week to process it all.

Enjoy the list below. Contact me with any questions. Leave your own ideas and perhaps this can lead to an online SpeedGeek session on Google Hangout at some point. I look forward to hearing from you.

Thanks Faye for the notes!
