Join Marci Butler to learn more about how your district can provide timely access to curriculum for your struggling students. Learn how Don Johnston’s Read:OutLoud text reader plus their Bookstream digital text storage service paired with Bookshare’s accessible books can help you shave hours off the amount of time you spend tracking down digital text for your students. Spend a morning with us exploring these options, creating your district Bookshare accounts and practicing accessing these materials. Come with a student in mind. You are encouraged to bring a laptop computer or iPad/iPod Touch to practice searching for and downloading digital books.   CANCELED
