Thanks for reading our newsletter.

Our theme this month is "Summer Tech Camp."  If you are a Palomar College faculty member, join us this summer, August 3-6, for a fun, educational tour that will provide you with knowledge of the latest technology tools and how to use them by creating a brief "teaching talk" similar to the famous TED talks.  Sign up by emailing the PD office:  pdoffice@palomar.edu.  The PD Office will confirm with you via email in May.  Click here to find out more.

See you in camp.

Keep up with us on our web site, Twitter feed Facebook group pages and YouTube channel. We also urge you to subscribe to the ATRC news and events feeds, to our individual blogs and our podcast.
