Hey Frank:

Thanks for posting this. The occasion for the NCTE webinar is the 40th anniversary of Masterpiece Theatre (though we're supposed to call it only "Masterpiece" now) and a brand-new teachers' guide Film in the Classroom that they have developed. The first edition of the guide, written quite a few years ago, was very good, but this one is even more expansive. While a lot of the references are to Masterpiece films of course, the strategies and exercises that the guide's writer, Katherine Schulten, who also does a lot on the phenomenal New York Times Learning Network blog, are applicable to all film. My portion of the webinar will be about 20-25 min. on using film terminology and ways to compare print and film texts. The remainder of the session will be learning about the free resources that Masterpieces has available, and for Q and A. Hope to "see" of you all there. Thanks again, Frank.

Dear Frank, thank you very much for your announce this significant event. I made my registration but there is a little problem about synchronize time and date for international attendants. I need to tell you and John here that; If there would be an online time and date converter for rookies (like as me) it's very appreciated.

Thanks indeed,
