Poem-in-Your-Pocket + Webinar Software = Engaged Parents

Wednesday, April 11th, 2012

I love Andy Plemmons’ idea of broadcasting Poem in Your Pocket poetry readings via Adobe Connect Webinar software. Check out the details! Parents can tune in live, or the system will auto-create an archive of the day. Such a smart way to show the tech-savvy capailities of the library and to connect relatives with its happenings!

An example:

As National Poetry Month creeps up on us in April, perhaps this will be a genre that will marry your students’ love of digital devices with the poetry you love?
