I have been selected to attend this summer's George Mason University's Washington Journalism and Media Conference July 8-15!
This should be a pretty exciting opportunity to work with high school students form around the U.S. We'll get a chance to listen to speakers from different media, as well as the ability to explore some of Wahington, D.C.'s sites and sounds.
My role will be as a discussion facilitator, which will afford the occasion to work on some HOTS questioning which I can transfer back to my classroom this fall. It's a win-win!
