Kickoff for China: Hong Kong and Zhaoqing



Hello, and welcome to this new blogspot. My name is Frank Redmond, and in about three weeks I will be headed for the city of Hong Kong in China as well as Zhaoqing. I will be in China from Oct. 3rd. to the 29th.

The purpose of this trip is to present a workshop at the Zhaoqing school for the deaf staff about curriculum and teaching methodologies for teachers of the deaf. I am glad you are able to join me in this trip and I look forward to your postings. If I can figure out the technology part when in China, I hope to post pictures here to give folks a better idea visually.

I am grateful to John Wotherspoon, Ying Jang Guo, Jeff Kircik, Helen Litterst, Charlie Flaherty and a number of other helpful individuals for all the help and support. I am so excited to be doing this work and hope and pray it will all go well. I am especially grateful to my wife, Maryal for all her encouragement, support and prayers. Also, our two daughters who are both expecting their first babies in the not too distant future. They know my thoughts are always with them as they go down their own roads of new and exciting experiences!

Please do check in from time to time and please post your thoughts and ideas here. Thank you . Frank Redmond
