The 2017 ASB Workshop at the "mother ship" in Springfield, MO has wrapped as 35 teachers from 17 states have all gone home, carrying with them a week of experiences and lessons in teaching broadcasting.

This was our 18th straight summer providing our special brand of professional development that combines presentations in the morning with application and field work in the PM. We could not have been more impressed with the efforts of this year's attendees.

The good news is, we are offering another workshop in New England July 23-27. If you need to re-charge your batteries, or get some fresh ideas for your class this fall, we hope you will check out the ASB home page where you can find information about the exciting week ahead at Quinnipiac University.

Thanks again to a wonderful group of teachers who made our summer a whole lot brighter with their energy and great attitudes last week. Their students are in for some fun this fall.

Dave Davis

Dave Davis started a Broadcast Journalism class at Hillcrest High School in the fall of 1989. Since then, the school's student-produced show, "HTV Magazine," has become one of the nation's most-honored high school broadcasts.

In an effort to provide valuable, useful, hands-on instruction to broadcast teachers from across the nation, Davis founded ASB Workshop in the summer of 2000. Since then, the week-long workshop has provided training for hundreds of high school and middle school teachers from 47 states, plus Mexico, England, South Korea, and Japan.

In the spring of 2009 he was named the Springfield (MO) Public Schools Teacher of the Year. He lives in Springfield with wife Martha, and has two daughters who live and work in the area.
