When it comes to educators as learners, time is critical.  Setting aside time to sit down and work through a new technology, instructional strategy or for a meeting is one thing.  Traveling, even across town, is another thing.  How do we solve the time and space issue when looking at personal/professional learning ?  Enter Adobe Connect.  Adobe Connect is an online meeting/presentation space available through Monroe #1 BOCES for staff development webinars and meetings.  To learn more about accessing and participating in an Adobe Connect session watch the following TeacherTube video.

We've made an adjustment to one of our webinar offerings in our Web2.0 Webinar Series.  Please note the following change:

New Date!  Overview of Social Networking now will be held on Wednesday, November 5, 2008 - 3:30pm - 4:00pm

Note that this was moved up one day from its previously scheduled day.  If you have any questions, please contact Brian at BrianC_Smith@boces.monroe.edu or (585) 383-6630.
