NECC Features Ferryway's Saugus Iron Works
If you are interested in technology integration chances are that you know about the annual National Education Computing Conference (NECC). NECC is an extension of the International Society for Technology in Education's (ISTE) effort to provide a forum for sharing ideas on how best to integrate technology into schools. The George Lucas Educational Foundation joined forces with ISTE and HP to underwrite the cost of a professionally produced movie featuring the Ferryway School. We are proud that "Turning on Technology" shows the outcome of the hard work of over a dozen educators working to ensure that urban students have opportunities to use technology. The Ferryway School was featured during a NECC conference session entitled, NETS•S in Action in North American Classrooms. Watch the ten minute long movie on the Edutopia website or here as a streaming video download.
