Hi all,

Join us tomorrow (Wednesday, November 13) for our regular monthly session on
virtual field trips at 7 p.m. Eastern (4 p.m. Pacific) at TAPPED IN.
Immediately following that session, I'm honored to be joining Michael
Hutchison in his Social Studies Forum (also at TAPPED IN) at 8 p.m. Eastern
(5 p.m. Pacific) to focus on some social studies virtual field trips. Hope
you can make it to one or both of the sessions!

For a description of the Virtual Field Trips session beginning at 4, read

educators. These sessions are free and open to all educators.

learn about some little known features of these trips. All of these field
trips have a consistent user-interface that helps to make classroom Internet
use more focused and efficient.

Hope to see you there!
