Following along the lines of Dr. Jewel Perlin’s March 29 workshop, here are two helpful web pages that show how to change your display settings on your PC or Mac to shift from blue light to a warmer light, which helps to decrease screen fatigue symptoms. The images below are clickable links.

Emilie attended two workshops on PRS options courses: Citoyenneté à l'ère du numérique and La sexualité dans toutes ses dimensions. Though the resources are in French, they can provide inspiration for how to structure course content using Google Sites. You can easily add Youtube videos, Slide presentations (with audio recordings), Forms, and other interactive content to a site to make for an engaging learning experience for your students.

We are truly going to miss our dear colleague, Giovanna as she convalesces over the next few months. Giovanna was the anchor that grounded us to the teaching reality during the pandemic this year. Having her in your corner is like having Ali, Gates, and Marconi all rolled into one. She has the strength of her convictions, a vision for the future, and technological knowledge to boot. 

It is all for the best as she will find a new spring in her step when she returns to the RÉCIT AGE fold. We wish you a speedy recovery, Giovanna.

• No more than $20,000 are allotted and a maximum of $1,000 can be used for materials. Projects asking for more than $1,000 for materials will be rejected automatically.
