    Do you have an Element lightboard? Are you confused on how to use it? Do your students know more than you? I'm looking for a 'guinea pig' just like you!

    I'm about to launch the "Element Lightboard Basics" online course, and I'd sure like to have one person try it out (for free!) first in order to catch any bugs, confusing instructions, or just typos, before the course goes live.

    The 'guinea pig' would not be charged for the course. A win-win – you get a free online course, and I get some feedback. You will also receive a Certificate of Completion, indicating PD credit equivalent hours, for having completed the course. And, after the completion of the course, the student is then free to use the course documents to teach their own students each year.

    If you would like to learn more about the basics of operating the Element board (for free!), and have time to complete the 5-lesson online course at an accelerated pace (usually students have a full week to complete each lesson, but I'd like to go through each lesson in a two or three day time frame – still allowing for both our schedules, I know 'tech happens'), please contact me at Beth@PRESETT.org, and please let me know your level of experience and what you find is most confusing.

    I've attached the syllabus, so that you can see the course curriculum, and you can see more about how the online course works at http://www.presett.org/litt.html.

    Thanks in advance for offering to be a guinea pig!

    We have an element, and I can only do basics in it. No training in lighting on this end, and I find myself needing to be more and more tech savvy!!! I would love to be a guinea pig!!

    I am also happy to act as a guinea pig, if still needed.  I have students who would love to have access to this sort of course next year!

    If the offer to be a "guinea pig" is still available, I would be very interested in being one. Please keep me posted.
    Thanks.

    I would LOVE to be counted in as well. Please let me know if it is too late. I would even pay for it as well.
