Megan and Emily star in NCCE podcast

Monday, March 3rd, 2008

Megan Evander and Emily McCartan were interviewed by Wes Fryer (Moving at the Speed of Creativity Blog) at the NCCE 2008 conference last week in Seattle.

Megan is the Generation YES customer service lead, and Emily is our development coordinator (and ex-GenYES student.) The podcast, recorded on the exhibit hall floor at NCCE, is about the leadership and teamwork skills students develop in the GenYES program as they team with teachers to integrate technology at their own schools.
