In addition to our three day TEACHAPALOOZA seminar, we also offer an additional three day HANDS ON workshop where we teach educators how to work with data. The week BEFORE TEACHAPALOOZA, we offer a weeklong workshop that we call Hands-on Backpack video. Thanks to a partnership with Cannon USA, we provide state-of-the-art DSLR and video cameras for the participants to use. Or the participants can practice with their own gear.
