Default FW: TI-2 is a Go! New Online Forum for Teachers

Teachers,

I'm pleased to share two pieces of good news-

Now Accepting Applications!

1) Dayton Amateur Radio Association will sponsor our Teachers
Institute on Space in the Classroom (TI-2) again this summer and we are
now accepting applications. This expenses paid, 4-day professional
development opportunity will be July 9-12 in Dayton, Ohio. Eight seats
will are available. An Amateur Radio license and prior attendance at a
foundational TI (TI-1) are required. You'll find more details on our
website at: www.arrl.org/ti-2-space-in-the-classroom

As previously announced, we will also be offering two sessions of the
Teachers Institute on Wireless Technology (TI-1):
http://www.arrl.org/teachers-institu...ss-technology:

o July 9-12 at Parallax in Rocklin, CA

o July 23-26 at ARRL Headquarters, Newington, CT

Application deadline is May 15, 2012.

Contributions to the Education & Technology Program Fund
http://www.arrl.org/education-and-technology-fund from individuals
and ham radio clubs, as well as in-kind support from Yaesu USA, Ham
Radio Outlet and Parallax make the Teachers Institute possible.

Join our Online Forum for Classroom Teachers

2) We are implementing an online forum for classroom teachers on the
ARRL website. You'll find a link to "Forums" on the home page of the
ARRL website, or simply go to: www.arrl.org/forums and scroll down to
"Amateur Radio in the Classroom." Mark Spencer, WA8SME will be
moderating the forum, and other Teachers Institute instructors as well
as past participants will be available to answer questions and respond
with ideas from personal classroom experience. Some rich dialog has been
shared in private email communications over the years; I'm pleased that
now we can provide a way to open up that dialog for the benefit of all.

Log in and post your questions or share an idea-- let's create an active
online community that will generate ideas and inspiration for Wireless
Technology instruction!
