We are so excited to welcome Suzanne Sallee as our special guest presenter for this webinar "Spark Creativity in Your Classroom with Adobe Spark." We have had many presenters who have shared in previous webinars about Adobe Spark but Suzanne plans to drill down on some amazing features that you may not have discovered.

Adobe Spark is a suite of applications to create and share impactful visual stories. Create visually appealing graphics with Spark Post, animated videos with Spark Video, and tell web stories using text and graphics with Spark Page. These free graphic design tools are available on computers via the web or IOS apps for both iPhone and iPad. Student creativity is sparked as they use Adobe Spark tools to create digital stories, video journals, reports and research papers, posters, presentations, and other class projects.

Suzanne Sallee is a wife, mom, grandma, and the Technology Integration Specialist for the Creighton School District in Phoenix, Arizona. Prior to that, she was an elementary classroom teacher in grades 3 & 4. As a technology integration specialist, she provides technology professional learning to support teachers in developing technology-enriched learning experiences with a focus on creativity. Suzanne is an Apple Learning Specialist, Google Certified Trainer, and Seesaw Ambassador. She also serves as President-Elect and PD Committee Co-Chair for AzTEA (Arizona Technology in Education Association) and helps plan EdCamp Phoenix.
