Two ways to win:

1. Visit Qwizdom on the trade show floor…

Qwizdom can be found in booth #1423, a demonstration area, and in booth #2459, where conference attendees can spend hands-on time with WizTeach, software designed to allow teachers to choose tool combinations that cater to the subject they teach. Conference badges will be scanned at both booths, automatically entering attendees to win a Q7 tablet, a mini interactive portable whiteboard. Qwizdom representatives will demonstrate various education tools every hour, on the hour, in booth #1423. Participants will receive a Qwizdom Tshirt for attending and are encouraged to wear it around Austin and at the show. A tap on the shoulder from a Qwizdom representative means a free classroom set of Q2 remotes. Additional giveaways every hour include a Q7 Tablet, Premium/ReadySet curriculum and Connect software.

During TCEA (Feb 8- 12), Qwizdom will ask its followers trivia question’s about the Q6 student response system, the company’s up-and-coming release.

Lyon, called the “Technology Coach” in the Johnson City School District, leads professional development surrounding classroom technology. Lyon typically works one on one or in small groups of teachers developing strategies for integrating technology into everyday instruction.

He plans to use his prize (24 Q2 remotes, the Q7 presenter tablet, and WizTeach tools for teachers and Connect Software) to train other teachers and to demonstrate how engaging response systems can be.  “[I’m] always encouraging teachers to measure student response in their lesson plans,” he explains.

Eventually, he will host a drawing within his school district for the classroom suite, Lyon says, explaining that he’d love to pass along his winnings after his professional development campaign.
