Teachers Participate in Technology Bootcamp

Forty-one ESA Region 5 teachers have been attending the Technology Bootcamp made possible by a Title IID Grant awarded to NWAS/ESA5 for the 2010-2011 school year. Technology expert, Kevin Honeycutt, presented on Wednesday. Dr. Helen Usera, director of the Chiesman for Democracy Foundation, explained the data collection process to teachers on Tuesday. On Tuesday the ESA education specialists, Holly Schumacher, Tracy Mittleider, Erin Dale and Brittany Knudson introduced the grant purposes and the requirements for the class credits. Teachers will earn five credits from USF and a $500 stipend for their work on the grant.
Despite problems with the connectivity to the internet, the teachers learned and networked during the past two days. Friday will be the final day of the Bootcamp.
