For the professional learning workshops, please note for each one whether it will be offered virtually or in person. All questions should be directed to Janet Smith at the EASC.

Welcome back for another amazing school year! A reminder about the deadline this week (8/29) for the year-long global fellowship program exploring global technologies through case studies of various regions, including East Asia. The Tokaido, Origami, Temples and Shrines cohort of teachers that traveled to Japan in June will present their Virtual Japan Curriculum in a series this fall online and in person. Feel free to pass along the information.
Help us spread the word about bringing global content into the classroom across disciplines.
Thank you,
Janet
