Ohio Counseling Organizations: Connecting Young Defragr's

On Saturday, April 14, at the Defrag conference Ted Jordan and Steve Simmons will led a young game developers session from 10:00 A.M. to 1:00 P.M. at the Defrag conference.

In researching cool people and activities on in Lorain, Susan and I have spent time meeting many people on the Lorain County Community College campus. Catherine Worden is Project Director of Vision 2015, an initiative to create a new vision for the community’s college of the future.

Wise Catherine (she guided over 100 forums out in the community as the Listening and Learning part of the project in 2005!) advised us to connect with the school counselor network to identify young digital natives who might be interested in participating in Defrag.

We are learning there are several state wide organizations in Ohio devoted to counseling in education. By building the connectivity to existing networks, Defrag can begin to identify and connect young digital natives and accelerate learning between digital natives and the rest of us, digital immigrants.
