One of the new support services offered by ESSDACK is in the area of online safety. This issue is constantly in the headlines and is on the mind of parents as well as educators. To address this need, educational technology specialist Kevin Honeycutt has developed a series of presentations for communities.

What is around the next corner? How should educators be responding to the changes going on in the world around them? What are the possible consequences of options being considered at this point in time?

ESSDACK now offers online staff development, which we call FlexEvents. A FlexEvent allows participants to attend any of our three sites - Hutchinson, Great Bend, or Pratt. Participants interact and participate just as they would if all locations were in the same room. There will be an onsite facilitator at each location. Look for flyers with the FlexEvent logo for upcoming workshops.

Have you ever thought about using video games as part of your classroom instruction?
