Calling All Teachers!
Would you like to use technology more effectively in
your teaching? Do you want to see what innovative teachers in your subject
are doing with technology? Would you like to spend a day or more building
skills and curriculum in a supportive hands-on setting? The opportunity
for all this is coming in June at the Teaching with Technology program
of the Connecticut Association of Independent Schools Summer Technology
Conference.
CAIS created the Teaching with Technology program to provide participants
with inspirational ideas, sound pedagogical techniques and appropriate technological
skills that will enhance their teaching and their students' learning. If
these things are important to you then mark your calendar today!
