The 2008 MLTI Summer Institute
Airborne for Beyond!
Wednesday, July 23 – Friday, July 25
Maine Maritime Academy, Castine

Join the MLTI Team and numerous fabulous presenters in Castine July 23 – 25 for the 2008 MLTI Summer Institute, Airborne for Beyond!

Registration will end on July 15th (or when we run out of room) so there's still time to book your reservation. If you were unable to secure a slot at our spring conference, then you definitely want to attend this summer!

The focus on home-grown heavy hitters continues with a keynote and workshop presentations by Randy Judkins. Randy will be working with us entering as yet unexplored dimensions of his skill set and ours! This is a chance to go way beyond boxes, not just merely outside them! Check out www.randyjudkins.com or www. http://www.mainehysterical.com/

You’ll have more than twenty-five great half-day sessions in all the core content areas from which to choose. Check out the all the course descriptions at www.mainelearns.org and watch for updates as new sessions are added.

Can’t find a workshop that meets your needs? You can make up your own at Inspiration Station! This is the place to jump off into creativity galore, and pick up a cold drink and snack, with the help of trained, experienced coach/mentors who are at your beckon call! Bring your most puzzling, perplexing, teaching problems and together we can solve them or at least give it the old “college try!” Bring along a great idea, share it and you just might win an iPod or one of many other great prizes.
