Louisville Library Technology Boot Camp

Yes, I know I'm a teacher and that means I stand in front of a group of people four times a day every workday and speak. I don't think twice about it. Ever. Not even on the first day of school. But that doesn't mean that I don't share most people's greatest fear: speaking in public.

But tomorrow, I will be speaking in public at the Main Branch of the Louisville Public Library. The LFPL is launching their Technology Boot Camp with an event featuring local bloggers, and I am honored to be included in that group.

From their press release:
Technology Boot Camp is a free, self-guided program delivered online. Participants access the Technology Boot Camp website from a computer with Internet connection at home, work, or any Library location. Each week the program website will feature a different topic: blogging, cloud computing, social media, photo sharing, and more. Easy-to-understand explanations build knowledge and fun hands-on exercises apply new skills. A series of classes at library branches will offer extra support, if needed.

The speakers tomorrow include:
10:30 - 10:45 a.m.                 Ashlee Clark11 - 11:15 a.m.                      Linda Park11:15 - 11:30 a.m.                 Melissa Chipman11:30 - 11:45 a.m.                 Mike Slaton11:45 - 12 p.m.                      Deborah Boyer
So if you know someone who needs a little technology TLC (I'm imagining that YOU don't, seeing that you're reading this blog) send them our way!
