Please join us on Thursday, January 28, 2010 at 7:00 pm as we welcome Mr. Alan November to WJPS. Mr. November will hold a seminar in which we will learn how our kids use computers, cell phones and Ipods for learning, communicating and entertainment.
Mr. November is an acclaimed educator, author and technology expert who has been a dorm counselor for at-risk students, a teacher, a technology coordinator, an alternative school director, and an education consultant. He is the author of Empowering Students with Technology, and his newest book is Web Literacy for Educators. He has won numerous awards, but is most proud to have been selected one of the original national Christa McAuliffe Educators.
I had the pleasure of attending one of Mr. November's workshops last year. He is warm, funny, engaging, and very serious about students and technology. If your child has access to a computer, cell phone, mp3 player or camera, you should make time to come see Mr. November at WJPS! Come and figure out such topics as:
- Do you know what your kids know (about the Internet, cell phone features)?
- Learn the "grammar" of the internet (who controls content on websites?)
- How we can all expand the boundaries of learning
You can learn more about Mr. November from his website,
