U.S. DOE looking for great examples of continuity of learning during H1N1 absences.

The US Department of ED is looking for examples of how a school district or schools have ensured the continuity of learning (hard copy packets, distance learning, etc.) during absences due to H1N1. If you have examples of what your school or district is doing to prepare for a large number of absences, please post your comments here or visit netTrekker Village to reply to the discussion there so that we can all learn from each other, and we here at netTrekker will pass on the information to the contact from the DOE.

H1N1, put up your dukes! Here comes the CDC!

Crucial vaccine recommendations, immunization schedules, vaccine safety, and why we should have vaccines are just a few of the areas the CDC covers here. This site of the day is packed with lots of information that educators can use to arm themselves against the pandemic and other nasties.
