Leading a workshop for teachers

Tomorrow I am leading a 2 day workshop for teachers along with 2 of my colleagues.

We're going to spend two days learning about Google Apps for Education (GAFE).

We've spent plenty of effort preparing. Hours on Google Hangouts planning together, more hours writing docs, creating slideshows, preparing Google Classroom, etc...

But in all of that we have to remember why we do this. As a geek who loves his tech tools it is easy to get lost in the fun of playing with cool new toys.

In the end the tools and toys are irrelevant. It's the students who walk in our door, that God has given us the privilege of teaching and leading that matter.

As long as the tools and toys help us to accomplish this task then these two days should be worthwhile.
