Sharing Our Story

I have been aware of the Anywhere, Anytime Learning Foundation (AALF) for a couple of years and have followed their work from the periphery.  The AALF is a non-profit organization dedicated to promoting access to learning by children around the world through access to 1:1 computing and other technology-rich programs.

This month’s issue of their regular on-line publication is special for teachers at our school.  Last fall I was asked to provide an article, focusing on how curriculum has changed since the introduction of our 1:1 program five year ago.  It was a pleasure to be able to showcase the work of our talented and dedicated staff.  You can read the full article here.

This summer, 14 of our staff will be representing the great work of their colleagues as we share our collective story as the 2009 Spotlight School at the Lausanne Laptop Institute in Memphis.  If you are a laptop school, thinking about a laptop program or even looking at ways to leverage technology-rich environments for learning, I would love for you to join us in July.  The AALF co-sponsors this event with the host Lausanne Collegiate School.
