Welcome to Instructional Technology

Greetings all! Thank you for visiting the Weatherford Independent School District's Instructional Technology site. I hope that you will find information to be helpful and supportive of our efforts to integrate technology into teaching and learning. Foremost, I hope that you believe as I do, learning has no boundaries or age limits. Today, with the constant improvements of technology and an explosion of information at our fingertips, it is imperitive that we instill in our students a need and love for learning. The future professional careers of our young people will have no boundaries. They will have to be life-long learners in order to insure that they are successful in whatever path they choose to walk down. Today's students do not live and learn as we did. They are multi-taskers and discovery learners. As noted in this video, our students enter the classroom with different backgrounds and experiences than we did. Students are engaged by the use of technology and motivated to learn using digital formats. If we are creating a world-class learning environment for all children of Weatherford ISD, then it is imperitive that we use the tools of the 21st Century. I invite you to ask questions, explore options, and collaborate with your peers in this journey for creating the best 21st Century opportunities for all WISD students. I am on this journey with you. In the spirit of life-long learning, MJ McDaniel

If you are visiting this web page for the first time, welcome! This is the new initiative from the Texas Education Agency, Project Share, for delivering professional development to Texas educators and staff. We are very excited about this and are linking these pages to your child's online classroom. You will find informative news about each teacher and the work they are doing in his/her classrooms. This is quite an undertaking, and we hope to have all our teachers using this format to share information to you by next semester. So, please be patient as we transition to these pages in the coming months. Have a wonderful 2010-2011 school year!
