Instructional Technology
Mystery Meat


CII.327
This is a new concept in training - Grab Bag Technology. Named after the mysterious animal protein they unfortunately still serve in many school cafeterias - you didn't know what it was but hopefully it tasted good enough to get down and it got you through the rest of the school day. I can't tell you right now what you'll learn in this session but you'll get your money's worth. I invite you to come over to the "dark side" and see some technology integration ideas for right-brainers. Take a chance, it's only 3 hours and you can probably slip out the back if you start to gag.

Mystery Meat



CII.285
This is a new concept in training - Grab Bag Technology. Named after the mysterious animal protein they unfortunately still serve in many school cafeterias - you didn't know what it was but hopefully it tasted good enough to get down and it got you through the rest of the school day. I can't tell you right now what you'll learn in this session but you'll get your money's worth. I invite you to come over to the "dark side" and see some technology integration ideas for right-brainers. Take a chance, it's only 3 hours and you can probably slip out the back if you start to gagÉ (3 hours)
