[SCCC] Webinars to Help Operator Proficiency with DX and Contesting etc ! ( Non Radio Ops Read last Paragraphs re Kahn Academy)

[Dennis Vernacchia]

Whether Contesting, DXing or Rag-chewing
you will find something of interest in these Webinars
hosted by Seasoned Operators

They are typically 1 hour sessions

When the bands are dead and no contests or pileups worth working
listen to a few of these ! ( Assuming your significant other hasn't loaded
you up with Honey-Dos ! )

Go here  http://pvrc.org/  and click on RECORDED WEBINARS

be in the PVRC archives !

Enjoy ........

and on a related subject of learning.....


I wish the guys that write Contest Logging software could somehow
figure a way to get us Computer Luddites to master their logging programs
the Kahn Academy*** way

So, what is the Non Profit Kahn*** Academy ?

A very unassuming guy named Salman Kahn is revolutionizing the way students
are taught and learn -
Search on YouTubefor his name and see how we may be able to stop the insane
baby sitting operation our current
educational system is bent on fostering.

Take 40 minutes of your time and watch these two videos

If you have kids, grand kids or just care about  students in general then
you will
see there is a better way than holding bright kids back or leaving slow
learners behind.
( In fact you yourself may want some refresher or new courses ! )

If you happen to be a teacher or a Teacher's Union advocate, I would love
to go one on one with
you about this subject. We are wasting so much money and time in the
education arena a
and I don't think Kahn Academy is a Flash in the Pan. Any of you reading
this that knows
students who are struggling or being held back by an archaic teaching model
( baby sitting operation as I call it )  are about to change a life if you
turn the student on to
Kahn Academy and Salman Khan's teaching model.

BTW, Bill Gates even uses Kahn Academy for his family !

If you agree we need to change the way we learn, then please forward this
info on.
( First stop - lobby the morons in Washington to stop wasting out school
tax money )

P.S. Now if we could only get Salman Kahn of "Kahn Academy" to do a Webinar
on learning WINTEST !!!
( Cheap shot at Bob, N6TV )
