Heading off to the APA. . . the American Psychology Association Conference 2010 INPsych

Yes those folks that created the unique scripting format for research papers.  I did not have kind thoughts about them and their formatting while writing my master's paper. This the actual cover of the book.  Took me years before I tossed it out!

Attending with my student daughter.  The APA offers their grad students a unique experience: mentoring in a speed dating format. I simply cannot imagine how this will pan out.

I am going to view their conference operations with an eye on how to incorporate the best ideas here in Minnesota for MEMO in the summer of 2011.  there is even a restaurant named after me.......Sally's Seafood on the Water.  We  will have to a look see!

$5,00.00 thinkfinity and Allison Zmuda CHALLENGE

Thinfinity  
$5,000 for your library!
Thank you for your interest in the AASL Thinkfinity Zmuda Challenge, introduced at the AASL President's Program held during the ALA 2010 Annual Conference!

We are offering two $5,000 incentive awards for the two most innovative ideas on how school librarians can help students acquire 21st-Century Skills. We have asked school librarians to post their ideas as a reply to the Thinkfinity Community AASL Thinkfinity Zmuda Challenge discussion by July 15, 2010. After that time, AASL will select the winning idea and notify two winning entrants. The winners must each complete a grant application before receiving the $5,000 award.

Note that winners are not asked to implement their idea with the $5,000; instead, the incentive can be used to acquire resources for their school or school library.
