NEA Co-op I started my new job this week as a Technology  Specialist at Northeast Arkansas Educational Coopertive. I am in charge of maintaining a new video website for EETT. EETT stands for Enhancing Education Through Technology. We are in the beginning stages of posting videos of our Power Point math lessons. The lessons are focused in Algebra and Geometry. We are hoping the site will be a great resource for teachers, students and parents to view and download our lessons. The videos will be streamed from the site in Adobe Flash format. Also, we will have down-loadable versions of each lesson in .wmv for Windows and .m4v for iPods. It is going to be a lot of work but I am very excited and motivated to make this a success!
