District 64 believes that when parents and schools learn together -- everyone learns more!
Back by popular demand, District 64's Parent University will return for a second year offering a series of evenings tailor-made for parents and community members to extend their own learning.
Google Apps for Education will be the focus at the first event on Thursday, September 10 at 6:30-7:30 p.m., Franklin School (Learning Resource Center), 2401 Manor Lane, Park Ridge. Google Apps for Education have become an integral part of District 64's learning ecosystem over the last few years. Students have been given the opportunity to use this powerful productivity tool in their learning environments. In this Parent University session, you will learn about Google Drive, how it works and the awesome suite of apps students can use to promote creativity, critical thinking, communication, and collaboration skills. We will go over the basics of Google Drive and highlight some of the great ways Google Apps can be used for student learning.
The evening will be facilitated by District 64 Instructional Technology Coaches Allison Sobotka (Franklin) and Kevin Michael (Carpenter).
All parents and adult members of the community are welcome to attend this free event. More information is available on our website at this link.
