The focus of these sessions will be creating and collaborating with other professionals in a make, take, and share of Notebook files that will be engaging, interactive, and fun for students, as well as targeting the Common Core State Standards through curriculum objectives. This course will be over four days, which will allow course participants to use files created, share experiences, share created files, have technical support, and provide support/collaborations with other educators.
