Yesterday morning, O'Connell English teacher John Meehan gave an engaging presentation at the Virginia Association of Supervision and Curriculum Development Conference in Williamsburg. This year's theme was "Deeper Learning," and educators and administrators from across Virginia gathered to participate in this three-day conference.
Mr. Meehan's presentation, titled "#Hashtagging Homework," focused on how his English classes have begun incorporating Twitter in nightly reading assignments in order to improve close reading strategies and boost student engagement.
