Workshop Information
Saturday, Nov 7, 2009, 9:30 am-12:30 pm: Online Educational Resources for TAs
Journey Into the Internet to Discover Great Resources You Can Use Now
Join ISKME for an interactive, hands-on workshop that engages participants in finding, using, and modifying high-quality, free and freely available online resources. Participants will reflect on their own processes and experience how Open Educational Resources (OER) can impact their teaching, using OER Commons and web-based collaboration tools, such as wikis and nings. Web resources will include such services as the National Endowment for the Humanities, Library of Congress, Lincoln Center Institute, Kennedy Center's ArtsEdge, SF MOMA and other arts-rich, education based sites.
Facilitator: The Institute for the Study of Knowledge Management in Education is an independent, nonprofit research institute located in Half Moon Bay, CA, that helps schools, colleges, universities, and the organizations that support them expand their capacity to collect and share information, apply it to well-defined problems, and create human-centered, knowledge-driven environments focused on learning and success. ISKME's OER and Arts Education Project, supported by a grant from the Ford Foundation, engages teachers and teaching artists in trainings around collaborative learning strategies and shared online resources and processes.
Please note: If you have one, please bring along your wireless-ready laptop. It's not required, it will just be nice to have as many as possible!

Teaching Artists Organized (TAO) is a collaboration of Bay Area organizations and individuals sharing a passion for the important work that teaching artists do in schools, communities, and institutions. As an unique artist and educator hybrid, the teaching artist has the opportunity to interact with people of all ages, demonstrating the critical role the arts can play in their personal lives, social interactions, and educational success. TAO seeks to become a voice for teaching artists, and serve as a hub for Bay Area teaching artists, sharing information and quality professional services, creating networks for employers and teaching artists to find one another, partnering with other organizations, and expanding awareness of the value of teaching artists.
