  5. The Beginning of Our Journey • In late October we were made aware that PASBO was looking for students to “cover” the PETE&C events. • In mid January Keith Grimm, our PASBO contact, notified us that our application was accepted. • In early February we selected our reporters and gathered for our first brainstorming sessions.

  6. The Planning Stage • We held two “working lunches.” • Our first meeting’s agenda included: • Explain to the reporters what PASBO wanted us to accomplish by the end of our visit • Watch sample videos from last year’s PETE&C • Brainstorm possible questions • Break into two reporting teams • Our second meeting’s agenda included: • Reviewing and finalizing our interview sheets • Hold mock interviews

  10. Keynote Speaker • Kevin Honeycutt used to be a teacher in a school in Kansas. • Kevin Honeycutt had a funny presentation including the “Charlie bit my finger” video. • He explained Google Sketchup. You could make a house and design it the way you want it to look. • Kevin Honeycutt’s main message was to tell teachers to use more exciting technology in their classrooms.

  11. Keynote Speaker Here we are after our interview with Kevin Honeycutt. We each asked him one question for him to answer. We asked him about encouraging teachers to use technology and new technology he was excited about.

  13. Interviews with Conference Attendees We broke into two teams and interviewed some of these people: • principals • teachers • technology directors • security guards • superintendents

  14. Interviews with Conference Attendees We came up with several possible questions to ask each interviewee. Some of the questions included: • How did you hear about PETE & C? • Why do you like coming to the PETE & C conference? • How does your district distribute technology? • Why is technology important in student learning? We allowed each interviewee to choose the questions that he/she was asked.

  15. Putting It All Together • After three hours of working in the field we went to our conference room. • Next, we took the footage from the iPads and transferred them to the two Macs. • Then we had to select the clips we wanted to use for our final presentation. • This process took about two and a half hours. • Most of the editing was done by the reporters.
