Posted March 13, 2009 · by Bill Ferris · in On the road
LEARN NC’s Bobby Hobgood will present “Teaching in North Carolina: Free Web-based tools and resources to help you work smarter” at the Visiting International Faculty conference in Greensboro March 14. This presentation is appropriate for teachers of all subjects in grades K-12.
Presentation description:
Teaching is hard. There is no script and the only thing predictable about students is their unpredictability. LEARN NC, a program of the School of Education at UNC Chapel Hill, is your virtual assistant for working smarter and addressing the challenges of unpredictable students. This session will not only introduce free, reviewed resources from LEARN NC, but will also give you strategies for engaging your students. Participants will leave with a customized guide and strategies for using web-based resources to improve their teaching. Come discover the virtual assistant that serves 30,000 educators each day!

The conference we had with Dr. Hobgood is really worth the time. I learned a lot from him and he is a very good speaker. Hope we (VIF teachers) can have more time with him and will be given more hands on activities.
More power!!!
