Annual High School Technology Outreach. Students will be able to participate in various courses and competitions focusing on their technology specialities from a forensic and security viewpoint.
Looking for a way to update and revitalize your electronics programs? Stepping up in scale from nano, to device, to board, to system, we reach a new view of electronics. Learn how to shift the focus of your electronics curriculum from the component level to a systems approach.
The concept of this workshop will be to use multiple free applications to create dynamic content. In this workshop the participants will learn how to create a blog (a web page) and then add content from other applications as a mashup utilizing the API code. Don’t know what API code is don’t worry that is what the workshop will teach you, but you won’t write any code (no programming knowledge is needed). For example how do you use picture stored at one location in a blog stored at another location? How can you exchange information and browse you home computer from your office computer? How can you view a YouTube video within your class page? How can you store your slides online? These and other topics will be covered in the workshop. This is a hands on workshop that will have the participants doing mash-ups in just a few minutes. Participants will need to have a google account and a hotmail (or Microsoft Live) email account, both are free. Additional resources will be posted online including instructional video.
Instructor: Vince DiNoto
Workshop will meet from 9:00 am - 12:00 pm in Room 108 of the Business building.
This workshop will be held on the Southwest Campus of Jefferson Community and Technical College. The college is located at 1000 Community College Drive, Louisville, KY 40272.

1. Transforming Instruction with Problem Based Learning
This track leads you through the steps required to add problem-based learning to your classroom. You will prepare a course that uses tasks from our online library (http://elc.fhda.edu/faculty/scenarios.html) or create your own PBL tasks, find industry volunteers to visit your classroom, practice facilitating student groups, and design feedback and assessment items for different levels of student work.
2. iCourse Design
This track takes instructors through the process of rethinking their course for online delivery. You will learn how to modify what you are doing in the classroom to delivery it effectively online. Online learning is a different way of learning and participants will be taken through the process of process of shifting from traditional to online instruction.
Nanotechnology was first used to describe the techniques that are associated with semiconductor processing. These techniques are still heavily used to make computer chips and other solid-state devices, but many other industries are now being impacted. The same tools and processes are finding applications in areas such as energy production and may improve our ability to find alternative energy sources. Increased efficiency, alternative materials and means of storage are all being impacted by nanotechnology.
NACK Center staff will share a summary of advancements in this area and explain how some common devices function. The main topic will focus on solar cell devices and how nanotechnology is impacting this field. The advantages and disadvantages of different materials will also be discussed.
Gain insight into quality assurance and sustainability best practices in the workplace. Learn more about partnerships in higher education leading to career pathways in high-technology fields. This event is of interest to professionals in life sciences, high-technology, environmental science, engineering, health care, facilities management, and manufacturing industries. Visit the campus of Bergen Community College, where a $567,000 grant from the National Science Foundation Advance Technological Education program is setting the foundation for a new curriculum in quality assurance, including a Quality Assurance Certificate for Life Science and the development of a Quality Assurance Center of Excellence.

Demand for Geospatial Technology, spurred by dash top navigation systems, location enabled smart phone apps and ubiquitous web map services such as Google maps, is seemingly ever increasing. As a result educational institutions are interested in incorporating Geospatial Technology into their curriculums. One of the largest hurdles to geospatial curriculum implementation for K12 institutions is the purchase, deployment and maintenance of GIS software. To develop solutions to the technological hurdles Gainesville State College (GSC), as a member of the National GeoTech Center, has partnered with local K12 institutions to use virtual machines and existing internet connections to create solutions. This webinar will include an overview of the pilot project between GSC and local K12 institutions, technical aspects and implementation specifics of the project and a discussion of the educational outcomes and impact of the program on K12 students.

Eighteen conference fellowships are available to attend the 12th annual weeklong intensive
Summer Fellows Forum. The Bio-Link National Center will select individuals geographically to
receive the fellowship from the following categories: a community or technical college
biotechnology instructor, a community or technical college math or science instructor, and a high
school teacher. First consideration will be given to applicants who have not yet attended a Bio-
Link Summer Fellows Forum or received the fellowship. However, consideration will be given
to past Fellows who can demonstrate how this conference will provide necessary and unique
value to their students, region and themselves.
At the Forum, participants will learn new skills and techniques, examine and test exemplary
curriculum models and course material, engage in dialogue about ethical, legal, and social issues
in biotechnology and learn how to disseminate this information within their own regions.
Fellows are expected to implement new strategies into their own programs, to lead regional staff
development activities, and provide prompt response to follow-up surveys.
The Bio-Link Fellowship (Application below) includes single occupancy accommodations (or
commuter if local) and designated meals. Due to rising accommodation and meal costs any
lodging charges associated with "no shows", late arrivals, early departures or unattended meals
will become the responsibility of the Fellow and billed to the Fellow at the conclusion of the
Forum. It is the Fellows responsibility to fund all travel costs (including parking and shuttle
fees) to and from the Forum.
Deadline for application to the National Center is Friday, March 26th, 2010. Once the
fellowships have been awarded, Fellows will be notified and emailed the “Fellowship
Registration Form” with further registration instructions and information.
