This is my submission for the Technology-Based Summary assignment for EME6317: Instructional Technology for Educational Leaders. Using a creative form of technology I had to summarize a few of the things I learned this semester and how they will help me as I pursue a career in Educational Leadership. Hope you enjoy! :)

Part of That World
Maybe they're right. Maybe there is something the matter with me.
But I love technology! And being a school leader can't be THAT bad...
Look at this stuff
Isn't it neat?
Wouldn't you think my collection's complete?
Wouldn't you think I'm THE teacher
The one who has everything?
Look at this room
Treasures untold
How many wonders can one classroom hold?
Looking around here you'd think
Sure, she's got everything
I've got pencils and notebooks a-plenty
I've got scissors and glue sticks galore
You want dry erase markers?
I've got twenty!
But who cares?
No big deal...
I want more!
I wanna lead with technology
I wanna help, wanna help my school thrive
Build my life round- oh, what do you call 'em?
NETS!
Three levels of standards, each will get you far
NETS are required for learning, growing
Preparing me to be a- what's that role again?
administrator!
They've got to support, they've got to enhance
Say to their teachers "give technology a chance"
I've got that in me - I wish I could be
Part of that world
What would I give if I could train all of the teachers?
What would I pay to give them a day full of PD?
In the end it'd be grand, they'd understand
Their kiddos are 21st century learners
Bright young students sick of textbooks
Give em digital land
I'm ready to act how school leaders act
Show that I'm fair and that we're all equal
Lead by example and be - what's the word?
Ethical
When's it my turn?
Wouldn't I love, love to explore that job I dream of?
With all you've taught me
One day I'll be
Part of that world
