AAFCS Presentation in Milwaukee

Thanks to all of you who attended the Creating an Online Learning Community with Blogs, Wikis, and Podcasts presentation at AAFCS in Milwaukee on June 20! It was exciting to inspire fellow professionals on the use of technology in our Family & Consumer Sciences programs. I look forward to hearing your success stories in the future! Please let me know how you are using technology in your program currently and how you envision using it to reach you community!

In the session I spoke about the Electronic Resource Directory that my assistant Ashley and I have created. The directory is intended to be a useful resource for FCS professionals, families, and educators. You can access the Resource Directory at this link Resource Directory. As we continue to expand the directory will do our best to make sure the links are updated.

Please feel free to use this blog as an annotated resource for your program. You can scroll through the previous posts to link to excellent online resources.
