Have you ever wanted to know or just what it’s like riding the ship with our kids, or what’s we’re working on during the rest of the day? Sure you already know about our great education programs and workforce development, but what exactly is Learning By Doing like?
Now you can keep up to date on Living Classrooms online using our new blog and Twitter accounts. We’ll be sharing everyday experiences in stories with pictures and videos on the blog (come back soon), where you can find out more with comments and links. Alongside with Yarns From The Halfshell, a blog chronicling adventures on our boat since June 2008, Living Classrooms blog will take you behind the scenes and on adventures with our students.
If you still wonder what is going on in between blog posts, our Twitter will help you find out as it happens. For the uninitiated, Twitter is an online network that helps to keep in touch with friends and organizations with short updates. So consider this your inside line to what’s happening, or as a venue for questions too short for an email.
For example Shonika Proctor (@teenbizcoach ) wanted to know “@LCNCR have you guys done partner programs in the past with National Maritime Heritage Foundation?” (indeed we are partners). We’ll be bringing Twitter on-board with us via our mobile phones, so feel free to ask us “What are you doing?” anytime, anywhere.
Of course you can still visit our homepage at livingclassrooms.org to learn about our organization. We’ll keep our focus on building our programs, and now we have new ways to share these stories with you. With two great new ways to keep in touch with LC, you don’t need to wonder anymore what Learning by Doing entails today.
