 * The first goal of this project was to enable a teacher who never used a computer before to teach the lab section of her class independently. This was the //Transition to College & Career// course and had a lab component where the students did web quest activities. The mentee teacher learned to research web search engines to create effective web-quest activities and to design worksheets using word document and conduct a class in the lab. The second goal was to assist one of the program coordinators to create a resources tab on the school’s existing website and populate it with a list of web links as student resources. Given that the school was to be closed for almost three months summer break, the mentor and the mentee decided to make this a summer school resource for student self-access lessons for the summer. In addition to achieving these two goals, the participant managed to coordinate two technology integration workshops at Corona-Norco Adult School by inviting tech experts from TIMAC (using the doc camera) and OTAN (using mobile phones in ESL classrooms). The second workshop was open to other teachers in the region as well. The workshops will be followed up in the new school year with the second phase of the mobile devices workshop and the teacher websites will be developed besides getting an online professional learning community to share ideas, provide technical support and stay connected.**
