January 2009
Hello ISTE Affiliates,
When it rains it pours, right? Well get ready for a flood – but this time it should be a good one. There sure seems to be a lot going on right now with ISTE, Affiliates, plans for NECC, and even our new president here in the USA. So stay close to your inbox because we have a lot to share.
It’s been a while since our last Affiliate newsletter, so this edition is full to the brim. I hope you can carve out some time to read through it. Keep it handy and share the info with your leadership and membership. You’ll find some announcements with upcoming deadlines, updates, resources, offers, and highlights of your fellow Affiliates. But by the time you make your way through it, we’ll be sending more info on some exciting new projects heading your way very soon, including:
- webinars for Affiliate leaders
- digital story telling project culminating at NECC
- Affiliates’ participation in President Obama’s economic recovery plan
- An exciting reception and technology showcase at the Library of Congress during NECC
Thanks for your part in making the Affiliate Network stronger. Ready. Set. Go!
Susan
