WHS Technology
New this week on our WHS Technology for Parents and Students Site:
- Need Tech Help to Prepare for the Holidays?: Check out our newsletter (http://bit.ly/whsfuture) for information about how CamelCamelCamel can save you money.
- Digital Citizenship: Navigating online can be tough. One thing many rely on are the reviews or comments of others. Unfortunately, many of those are fake. Luckily there is a website that can help. FakeSpot identifies false or misleading reviews and rerates items online according to the legitimate user reviews it has received. It is a great way to have a conversation with your student about validating information sources online.
- WHS Robotics: Our WHS Robotics team will be at the library the next two Tuesdays for a drop in demonstration. For more information, click here: http://bit.ly/whsfuture
