Mann School July 13-17 and one week at Shorecrest Preparatory School in
St. Petersburg FL July 27-31. Summercore is a unique computer training
workshop for K-12 teachers of all ages and all stages: from novices to
administrators to skilled users to computer coordinators. As Steve Taffee,
Director of Technology writes "arguably the best faculty inservice program
we've had at Castilleja since I joined in 2002."

-- Summercore 2.009 meets Web 2.0. Do you want your faculty excited about
blogs, wikis, Google docs and RSS? How about creating links in Delicious?
Or working on digital storytelling with bubbleshare, flickr, and jumpcut?
Or using Voicethread for a classroom project? What about creating a
journey in Google Earth or acquiring strategies for incorporating YouTube
into the curriculum?
-- Summercore 2.009 will include all these Web 2.0 skills, plus strategies
for using the Smartboard and the notebook software, laptops in the
classroom, and searching for the best web sites available. The key theme
for Summercore 2.009 is how to create a Classroom 2.0. Our focus will be
on revolutionizing the dynamics of the use of technology. There is nothing
more exciting than integrating the world of Web 2.0 into every grade level.
-- Summercore 2.009 is a unique 5 day marathon journey through hardware,
software and humanware. It is different from virtually any other computer
workshop you have ever attended. The only way to get a sense of this is to
read quotes from those who have come or even better talk directly to any
of the over 2600 Independent School teachers and administrators who have
attended Summercore since we began in 1985, exactly 25 years ago.
Please tell your faculty--all grade levels and all skill levels--about
Summercore 2009. All details are posted on our http://www.summercore.com
Web site. Thanks in advance for sharing this e-mail with your faculty and
administrators.
