It is a beautiful spring day here in Maine which has me thinking about summer. The highlight of my last three summers has been hosting the Practical Ed Tech Summer Camp. This summer I’m hosting two of these events. Discounted early registration and discounted early group registration is available until the end of the month. Contact me for information on group rates richardbyrne (at) freetech4teachers.com

The Practical Ed Tech BYOD Camp is on July 11-12. This two day event is for people who work in schools that have BYOD programs and 1:1 laptop programs (Mac or Windows), iPads, Android tablets, Windows tablets, or who have shared computers in a classroom or lab setting.

The Practical Ed Tech Chromebook Camp is on July 18-19. This two day workshop is based on my framework for using technology, specifically Chromebook-friendly tools, to help students discover new information, discuss their ideas, and demonstrate their knowledge. Additional attention will be given to Chromebook specific topics like Google Apps for Education, workflow, and data management.

16 hour professional development certificates will be given to participants at both events. Learn more about both events on the Practical Ed Tech Summer Camp homepage.
