Are you looking for a JOB? Are you a RECRUITER? Are you an HR manager, MANAGER, or small business OWNER? Then this session is a MUST for you.

For the Recruiter, HR Manager, Manager or Business Owner, this session will:
- Provide an overview of why social media is important for organizations to care about
- How it is shifting the corporate landscape forever
- Discuss practical and general applications of social media within organizations

For quite a few summers, I've taught kids ages 11-14 an Introduction to Programming Course held at the Young Scholars Institute. The kids start not knowing anything and after 5 days they have written full games using Java and Processing.org. I will do an overview of how and what I teach them, their learning process and how to keep them interested, and what I've discovered through the years.

Over the last year, I decided that my long-term life goal was to be a teacher. To get all touchy-feely on you: I wanted to elevate our sagging education system and help engage young people to be lifelong learners.

The only snag: teachers are underpaid. Oh, and I don't really like babysitting other people's kids.
