Christa McAuliffe Technology Conference

A Touchscreen Chromebook that is also capable of accessing the new Android Apps for Chromebooks program is included in the cost of this 6-hour Pre-Conference MITI workshop. Chromebooks have become a preferred and successful digital tool choice in many learning settings. Now, they are going to the next level by also working in a tablet mode with Android Apps! This takes the Chromebook from laptop to tablet mode. Educators in this workshop explore set-up and basics of Chromebook use, tips, and tricks, as well as explore basic Google apps integration and Andriod Apps integration. In the second half of the day, participants also explore and work with some great Chrome and Android apps and extensions and take away some class lesson ideas as well as tips for working with struggling and unique learners. Presenter and Google Education Trainer Jennifer Lowton has been working with Chromebooks K-12 across multiple districts, as well as with struggling and unique learners and shares some very cool tools to unlock the true potential of the Chromebook. The registration fee for this MITI workshop includes the cost of the workshop AND the device. The specific Chromebook model selected and exact price will be posted in October on the conference website at www.nhcmtc.org. Starting Friday, November 4, 2016, if you ALREADY have or want to order the required device on your own, you may register for this workshop as a BYOD for just the cost of the workshop, $110.
