The WWW checks have been coming in a few at a time! Thank you to
those who have already paid - we have about half of them in as of today!
The rest of you have until October 15th (which is next Friday), so try
to get them in soon. Our new online submission method is working great,
so if you have a digital camera or a scanner, PLEASE send us your images
for strategies! It is simple, and saves you from having to send us year-end
slides! Call or email the clearinghouse if you have any questions. We'd
love to help you out!

As I get ready to leave for the big AEI Fall Conference, I thought
I'd write down a few notes from the week. First of all, the 2nd year
graduate NAB students will be giving a presentation at the conference
on Friday at 2:00-2:50pm. Their session is called "The Spirit of
Creating in Community," and it should be a good one! Looking over
the schedule, I see a number of other NAB personalities that will also
be presenting. Pat Grubb, Susan Baer, Tempest Kuykendall, Tami Rondeau,
Joel Franken and Chris Noel are all scheduled to appear. I'm sure
they would all appreciate a few familiar faces in the audience, so check
out what they have to offer! In other news, the newsletter went
out on Tuesday, and it should be arriving shortly. I encourage you to
read through it completely...I guarantee that there is a lot of good
information and a lot of new faces!

Well, it appears as though the world has not been thrown into chaos,
even with the abundance of 9's in today's date. So I think it is safe
to say that you will have to pay those annual WWW bills again
this year afterall! You should all have received your bills at your
school address by now. We got your address off of the information you
have provided on the database, so if that is not up-to-date, let us
know or you may never get your bill! The $25 will be due at the Clearinghouse
this year by October 15, so please don't set it on the back burner...send
it in while it is still fresh in your mind...we will be extremely appreciative!
We are putting together the Fall Newsletter at the moment,
so if you have anything you like included or mentioned, email me at
lsteele@iastate.edu, and we will see what we can do about getting it
in. Please read over your newsletter carefully when it arrives late
next week...there will be many important improvements, reminders, and
announcements that will be important to you!

Welcome back! We are "enjoying" our first day back to school
at ISU, which means the Clearinghouse is almost running at full speed
again. Laura Steele will be the Clearinghouse Coordinator and Webmaster,
so feel free to email her at lsteele@iastate.edu with any questions,
comments, and suggestions! Be looking in your mailbox in September for
our fall newsletter containing new staff, students, clearinghouse hours,
and NAB improvements. The good ol' $25 WWW bills will also be on their
way soon...so you can be looking look forward to that! We encourage
you to take a look at the database and use it throughout the year. It
has many new strategies from this summer's ArtEd 513 class and
a new way to submit visuals online, as well as over 2000 "classic"
strategies that you can use in your classroom. Let us know if there
is anything else that you would like to see added to the NAB program.
We are always looking for better ways to meet the needs of the teacher/researchers!
You can contact the clearinghouse at 515-294-3448 or by email, nabch@iastate.edu.
Have a great semester!
