: Full length (15 hours) courses typically run for five sessions of three hours each (or six sessions of 2 1/2 hours each). Courses of three to twelve hours in length may be scheduled differently. Some examples appear below. In all cases, it's your call (even for Saturday classes). If you want to teach more than one course, PLEASE duplicate this form. (Downloading it from the NERIC Training web site http://neric.org/mspcdform.htm and emailing it back is even better.)Examples of class sessions:
- 3 hour "Get Your Feet Wet" course to learn the basics of a program (one session of 3 hours or two sessions of 1 ½ hours)
- 3 to 12 hour "Booster Shot" course (follow up) of a course previously taught
- 3 to 12 hour "Mini-Support" course to concentrate on one NYS Standards area and integration of technology
- 15 hour course on specific NYS Standards area with software and/or hardware integration

For each course you'd like to offer, please complete the lines below and write a BRIEF (3 - 5 sentences) description of the course as you would like it to appear in a brochure. Remember that all courses of ten hours or more require the participants to develop a technology enhanced lesson plan or project that follows the NYS Learning Experience format.
