Note:
Because of the recent release of the iPad2, the order for the
participant iPads has been delayed. We deeply regret this inconvenience,
but this was due to circumstances beyond our control. Please accept our
apologies, and check your e-mail for information regarding when and how
you will receive your new iPad2. While I know this delay is disappointing (for me, too!), it will be well worth your wait to receive this newer iPad model which has a camera and other enhanced features.
The workshop will be held as planned, and we look forward to a great day of learning, sharing, discussing, and planning...and FUN!
Explanatory Message From Dr. Mark Wagner, Professional Development Coordinator, Computer Using Educators (CUE)
