of the most frequent questions we get is, "How can I participate
in Black Family Technology Awareness Week?" The
quick answer is that only your imagination and resources limit
you. Almost any activity that promotes technology is appropriate.
To get you started, here are just a few ideas.
Corporate America Open House Day
Take a group of middle school children to your office or ask
a local corporation to show technology in their workplace
with role models and other professionals-- a great opportunity
to find out about industry trends and our place in the work
force.
