Generation YES invites you to meet our nation's future leaders -- today's digital age students at NECC 2009. Come to booth 2918 and meet students from local schools who are mentoring their peers in technology literacy, teaching technology to teachers and learning to be leaders of the future. These students will be taking photos of conference goers with today's leaders (cardboard stand-ups) and printing souvenirs and buttons for select NECC attendees. This will be an exiting and fun photo and story opportunity.

The Generation YES nationwide network of schools provides opportunities for student technology leadership through innovative classes and clubs. Empowering tech-savvy students to be 21st century learners and leaders is a key goal of all Generation YES programs. Generation YES students learn technology skills so they can help teachers use technology in the classroom, provide high-quality tech support, and mentor peers in technology literacy skills.
