Events
On April 29th, 2008, Saint Stephen's Armenian Elementary School is
opening its doors to the community for a special event focusing on
"Free & Open Source? Software in K-12 Education." We are inviting
teachers, IT personnel, and school administrators from Boston and
nearby suburbs to come and see for themselves how FOSS can help them
to meet all of their educational computing needs. They will be able
to "test drive" Open Office.org and other apps in our 100% Linux
computer lab, and to learn from local experts how to introduce FOSS

You’re invited to witness 1-1 learning in action!
When: Tuesday, May 6, 2008
Where: Brown Middle School, Science Classroom 203
Teacher: Susan Lesser-Seltzer
The Technology Advisory Committee and Department of Information Technology would like to extend an invitation for you to visit Mrs. Lesser-Seltzer's 8th grade classroom on May 6, 2008 to see "first-hand" the impact of just-in-time learning using individual laptops. Through a generous six-week Apple Computer loan of student laptops, each student will have ready access to a wireless portable computer during science class.
Students will be using the new Pearson-Prentice Hall Science textbook with its online resources as well as a variety of websites and multimedia tools to demonstrate their understanding of astronomy.
Please email Susan Luchette at susan_luchette@newton.k12.ma.us with your preference of block time (b, c, e, or f).
