The La Familia Technology Week campaign will "address the Digital Divide by spotlighting events around the country that demonstrate how technology can provide numerous opportunities for Hispanics. This public awareness campaign will focus attention on technology through media campaigns, family educational programs, and local, community-based initiatives." To learn more about events that may be happening in your community or to find educational resources that your program can use to host its own La Familia Technology Week events, go to the La Familia web site at: http://www.lafamilianet.net At F.E.G.S, we'll be holding our second La Familia Technology Week event at one of our ESOL sites. The highlight of the event are the hands-on workshops for our students and their children, including Web resources for Spanish-speakers, early learning software, adult literacy software, educational web sites for children, making digital greeting cards and family literacy activities using video, such as TV411. Are any others on the list participating in La Familia Technology Week events? Any recommendations for web resources participating programs might want to use for developing workshops?
