Learning Foundation Offers Summer Institute
21 Steps to 21st Century Learning Institute
On August 18-19, 2008, in Lambertville, NJ, the Anytime Anywhere Learning Foundation will present the 21 Steps to 21st Century Learning Institute, an intensive 2-day institute for school leaders ready to start a 1-to-1 laptop program in their schools.
Institute leader Bruce Dixon, international pioneer of 1-to-1 learning and president of the Anytime Anywhere Learning Foundation, will take you through the 21 steps you should follow to successfully implement a student laptop program and tailor the program to your vision and your school's needs. Based on the experiences of thousands of laptop schools around the world, the 21 Steps to 21st Century Learning range from research and resource assessment, through all stages of project and financial planning, communications, professional development, and deployment. Space is very limited to provide ample time and opportunity for team work and focused small discussions.
The institute is designed for Superintendents, Assistant Superintendents, Principals and other school leaders who have made the decision to start a 1-to-1 student laptop program and are at the early stages of the planning process.
Attendees will leave prepared with a clear understanding of where to start and how to develop their laptop programs.
