#WOWWednesday – Wendy Oversby

    Every Wednesday I highlight some of our amazing MVSD staff on our social media pages. Everyday our staff are using tech in new and exciting ways, are learning new skills, and are sharing ways in which ed tech is assisting them in their practice.

This week I would like to highlight Wendy Oversby from Ochre River School (ORS). Earlier in the fall the staff at ORS began discussing how best to organize and deliver their Remembrance Day Service as the school-provided service is the only one available in the community. Due to Covid restrictions that prevented any type of gathering or guests to the building, Wendy took charge of creating a virtual presentation that could be shared out to the community via the school’s website and Facebook page.

This included:

  • familiarizing herself with updates to Microsoft tools available within Office 365
  • internal collaborative sharing networks for students & staff to submit their work
  • external sharing links to make their presentation accessible to the broader community

These skills are now able to be used for future projects such as the ORS Christmas “Concert”.

I'd love to hear your thoughts; please leave a comment!
