=Welcome to the 2008 Heritage Technology Academy!=

The purpose of this week-long summer class is to introduce staff to as many web 2.0 resources as possible as they relate to 21st century learning skills. Through this class, teachers are given time to explore a wide variety of resources from Google Docs and Del.icio.us to Audacity and Wikispaces, all within an environment that promotes fun and self-discovery. You can see what specific topics we explored each day by clicking on the schedule in the left-hand navigation bar.

This class has been offered to over 30 staff members to date, with plans to offer the class again in the summer of 2009, hopefully training another 15-20 staff members.

We will also offer portions of this technology academy class at after-school Heritage Academy classes throughout the school year.
