Charter Oak Unified has links to ISTE archived Webinars. You can view these at work or at home. They are full archived presentations including the on going chat that occurred during the original Webinar. They can be accessed through the Charter Oak Unified Web site. They can be accessed through the left-hand menus.

Hover over Staff and click on ISTE Webinars at the bottom of the sub-menu.

 The committee recommends viewing the following Webinars as a beginning point from the list of Webinars:

1) Internet Privacy & Security

As soon as the Cyberbullying Webinar is available we will let you all know.

We hope you find all these Webinars informative and valuable.
