 * Description:**

**Reflection:** I truly enjoyed the STEP experience. I realize that it took time away from the school building, but the time was definitely well spent in order to promote technology in the classroom. I know that if we provide our teachers with the tools (cameras, camcorders, etc.) and the time to "figure out" how to make the connections it will benefit our students. We all know that students learn in many different settings. We must move technology to the front of the class and provide students the multiple technology learning opportunities that are availiable. As a STEP principal participant, this program has given me a spark and I am anxious to move forward working with these tools involving as many teachers and students as possible.
