AAPI Month
Tech Tip Tuesday (April 25, 2023)

Let's take a moment to acknowledge that May is Asian American Pacific Islander Month, a time to celebrate the achievements and contributions of the AAPI community to our society and culture.
This month provides an opportunity to reflect on the diversity of the AAPI community and the important role they play in shaping our nation. It is also a time to recognize the challenges and discrimination that many AAPI individuals have faced and continue to face.
As we celebrate AAPI Month, let us renew our commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion. Let us work together to build a more just and equitable society where all individuals, regardless of their background, are treated with respect and dignity.

What is Wakelet?
Wakelet is a K-12 content curation platform that allows users to save, organize, and share multimedia content such as articles, videos, social media posts, and images in one place. It is a cloud-based platform that enables users to create collections of content, called "Wakelets," on a specific topic or theme. Wakelet also offers collaboration features, allowing users to invite others to contribute to their Wakelets, and a social networking aspect, allowing users to follow and be followed by other users. Wakelet is used by educators, students, journalists, businesses, and individuals to gather and share information on a variety of topics.
