Jul 2nd, 2010 | By admin | Category: News, Uncategorized

Dorie Glynn, a 2nd grade bi-lingual Math and Science teacher from Cypress, Texas, won Qwizdom’s largest tweetaway to date during ISTE 2010. This promotion “tweeted away” over $4,000 in education technology prizes including a complete classroom suite of Qwizdom products. Dorie was the first educator to correctly answer the tweetaway trivia question, “What are the three ways to enter the ‘How Do You Q?’ Contest?”

This past school year Dorie was able try out several different kinds of student response remotes in her classroom at Kirk Elementary thanks to a friend in a nearby school district. She is excited to have her own Qwizdom set of remotes, especially because of the text input feature.

Dorie has been an educator for six years. For the past five she was the school campus liaison to the district and recently made the transition into the classroom. This was her first ISTE (formerly NECC) conference. She recently received her Master’s Degree in Education with a Focus in Instructional Media.

Her classroom already features a SMART board and she uses technology in the classroom regularly. She plans to use the Qwizdom student response system “to ask on the fly questions to keep students engaged and track their understanding during class.”

Dorie will be taking home a complete classroom suite of Qwizdom products including the newest student response system, the Q6, a Q7 Presenter Tablet, Qwizdom Document Camera, Wiz Teach Tools, Connect Software, and a year of Premium Service.
