MEETING MR. LEVIN
Who are members the Educational Innovation and Information Services team in our community? Where can we find them? How do they contribute to student life at the Broadway and Pine St. campuses? Last week girls visited Mr. Howard Levin's office for an interview to find out more about his responsibilities as Director of Educational Innovation and Information Services. This week girls met Mr. Levin's educational innovation faculty and tech support personnel where they are located on campus in the Tech Hub and Spark Studio.

"What Tools Do You Use?"

Mr. Levin uses his phone a lot at work because
he is walking to many places around campus. 



"What are These?"

Mr. Levin has a collection of name badges from
presenting or attending conferences. His favorite
one is from Australia.

TAKE TWO! Meeting Mr. Howard's Team
On Wednesday, January 16th, girls met Mr. Levin in the Tech Hub and Spark Studio for introductions to his team of educational innovation and information services personnel. At the Tech Hub, girls spent the first 10 minutes interviewing one member before moving freely around to meet the others. In class, they are using their notes to collaborate in making an "All About __" poster for their interviewee.
