Cell: 406 925 2519



In times of change, learners inherit the Earth.

 

Join us for a roundtable discussion planning how ATNI’s new Tribal Tech Training initiative can bring together the best of traditional culture and values, and embrace the best individual and cultural empowerment opportunities that modern digital devices and connectivity offer.

 

In the balance is the opportunity for returning to a traditional local sustainable lifestyle where families can once again live and work together. Learn about new digital opportunities and native best practices for all generations.

 

Frank Odasz, president of Lone Eagle Consulting, will share lessons learned from two NTIA Alaska Native pilot projects including the most recent Alaska Native Innovations Incubator; http://lone-eagles.com/incubator.htm

 

Online video is returning us to being an oral culture and allows all of us new ways to inspire and inform as both learners and teachers.

That Frank has been teaching rural teachers online for 30+ years, is relevant to your Erate funding goals and edtech best practices for K12, as well as for tribal colleges. 


Frank's  online courses for both educators and citizens (youth workforce in particular) are at http://lone-eagles.com/guides.htm   I’ve taught Alaskan educators for 17 years online via Alaska Pacific University and the Alaska Staff Development Network.  For over 10 years I taught online for Seattle Pacific University but am not teaching for them currently.

 
One of Frank's
more unique online curriculums is specifically for Native HS dropouts, funded by the AK Dept of Labor;

http://lone-eagles.com/workforce101.htm   It is designed to self-employ youth as online peer trainers by creating for-profit Instructional Entrepreneurship businesses.

Frank's Native and rural grant templates are at http://lone-eagles.com/rural-grant-templates.htm  and one of his most recent grant proposals is 

http://lone-eagles.com/healthy-families.htm


Frank has listed multiple Native Innovation Centers from universities in Canada and the U.S. within 

http://lone-eagles.com/digital-montessori-resources.htm

Frank has presented for an AIHEC conference in Missoula, and wrote a paper for AIHEC; http://lone-eagles.com/aihec.htm and one for a national Indian Vocational Education project, http://lone-eagles.com/indian-voc-ed.htm and one for an Australian academic indigenous conference http://lone-eagles.com/village-sustainability.htm and one related to environmental stewardship http://lone-eagles.com/nativehearts.htm

 

Frank has taught Office basics, computers 101, Internet 101 since 1985 as University faculty and online as an adjunct professor.

 

Another recent resource are Frank's short videos showing multiple easy tools for preserving elders stories and wisdom for all future generations;

Frank's June 2015 Broadband Opportunities Council
input, is also online as a WORD doc here; 

 http://lone-eagles.com/BOC-RFC-Lone-Eagle-Consulting.doc    10 pages, and there is a global business model recommendation at the end.

It is the end results that matter most, and we need an authentic grassroots T3 initiative to validate the most scalable benefits and fast-track train-the-trainer models.
I’ve nationally published articles on this theme, the most recent is at  http://lone-eagles.com/mass-innovation.pdf
Other articles; http://lone-eagles.com/digitizing-alaska.pdf and http://lone-eagles.com/silver-tsunami.pdf


One of the most important digital skills is to be able to quickly find the best new resources online to bring home to fuel the home fires
of local innovation on an ongoing basis.
