LET'S SUSTAIN THEM! A few weeks back, NICE, Northern Illinois Computing Educators, had a meeting called Share-O-Rama. It is a great event that allows anyone to share an idea.

I have shown these below.
There were plenty other resources as well. Check them out on this Google Doc
The next meeting is October 22nd the Topic is Google Ecosystem K-12. Other opportunities that are very inexpensive also are available. For example there are two events coming up on October 18th. Each one costs only $10 for non-members. Check out the opportunities at http://www.iceberg.org/ |
