OmniGlobe Classes this Summer

March 13th, 2010

Andy Kaufman, our grant-funded OmniGlobe (TOSA) Guy, is busy finishing up a TIC application for a series of summer classes so that teachers can stay learn how to use the OmniGlobe to integrate social studies and science content. Participants can earn 1.5 credits plus an additional $100 stipend after they integrate an OmniGlobe lesson into their class.

If you haven’t had a chance to learn about the OmniGlobe, that is very sad! The OmniGlobe is our district’s newest piece of cool technology that was donated by the Erion Foundation and ARC Science Simulations. The Erion Foundation also is funding Andy’s position for the next two years. We are extremely thankful for this amazing opportunity to deepen student engagement and conceptual learning through this unique technology.  Contact Andy if you want more information…
