What’s New on the Web

Savvy Traveling—

Entering a new educational setting can often be as confusing as traveling in a foreign country. LEARNS fall 2004 Tutor newsletter, Savvy Traveling: Engaging Volunteers With School Culture, can help volunteers integrate successfully into the organizational culture of an education site as they begin the new school year.

Web-Based Tutor Training—

Developed by the LEARNS project and funded by the Corporation for National and Community Service, Web-Based Tutor Training is designed to introduce national service members and volunteers to effective tutoring strategies. Users interact with virtual tutors and children engaged in a range of activities that integrate different skills and learning styles. The site also includes downloadable support materials.
