How can we help teachers?

I’d like to brainstorm some creative ways we could help teachers learn or experience new technologies.   We have to be creative because obviously one or two people can’t work with every teacher on campus.  What are some creative, ingenious, time efficient, or streamlined ways we can get teachers to engage with new technology when we bring it into the school? 

One idea I think would be great was if we had some sort of process in place–like “mini workshops” and then longer workshops, and we had a “name” for the different types.

I think having a routine, like brown bag lunch, or whatever, would get people interested and make it more of a process.

We could have a continuous schedule and a rotation of people teaching them too, so one person wouldn’t have to bear the brunt of it.

Some tools are online and aren’t really things we have to purchase, so its just a matter of helping people spend time with them.  Of course time is always the problem, isn’t it?

Anyway, ideas anyone??
