************************************************************** Net Happenings - From Educational CyberPlayGround ************************************************************** From: "BJ Berquist" <lullah@xxxxxxxxxx> To: WWWEDU <wwwedu@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Thu, 03 Apr 2003 05:02:17 -0500 Subject: [WWWEDU] [MeetMe] PROF DEV: This Week At TAPPED IN April 6, 2003 After School Online (ASO) is a forum for educators. The scheduled events, designed for professional development, are open to everyone in the TAPPED IN community and all guests. You can get a sneak preview of the new system (dubbed TI2) in some of the ASO sessions this month including several TI2 Tours and Tips. This week's featured events for ESL/EFL teachers and learners include the Saturday and Sunday WebHeads and a Sunday EuroLang discussion on Poessays & Critical Thinking. Tech Leaders, Literacy and the Arts, and Technology in the Classroom are scheduled for Monday. Tuesday brings two science discussions. The K-3+ Resources topic is Spring and Science and the popular Nuts About Nature topic is Signs of Spring. "Avoiding Armageddon", the upcoming PBS series that examines the threats posed by nuclear, chemical, and biological weapons, and brings viewers face-to-face with the people racing to use them, will be the topic of Wednesday's Social Studies forum. Thursday's Pre-Service Teachers will take a look at some support resources. Events marked (TI2) will be held in the TI2 system. ********************** Check out the new TI2 at http://www.tappedin.org/beta.
