.@ivanorbegozo moved here from Peru, had a hard time learning English until he discovered the @SPLBuzz system #scioSEA
-
At #scioSEA, @ivanorbegozo tells the story of how he came to love the Seattle Public Library @SPLBuzz – “you can *only* take home 150 books”
-
.@ivanorbegozo took advantage of the @SPLBuzz and @gatesfoundation partnership to provide ESL education #scioSEA
-
.@ivanorbegozo: passion is communications tech. Learning English gave me access to latest news, trends. Translated it to Spanish! #scioSEA
-
In Peru, he didn’t have all the resources in Spanish abt technology – says .@ivanorbegozo #sciosea
-
The 2 second sales pitch for @ivanorbegozo‘s Latin Nexus Group was “I make AV & tech stuff work smoothly” Yes PLEASE! #scioSEA
-
.@ivanorbegozo chooses to use HTML 5 to code for smartphones, because apps segment your audience by phone type #scioSEA
-
.@ivanorbegozo, natural storyteller, first learned English at public library, now building site of resources for spanish speakers #scioSEA
-
.@GonzalezIvanF: Is it enough to have perfect translation of a science concept, or are there other things to consider? #scioSEA
-
Take away from @ivanorbegozo: DO NOT use Google Translate. Take the time & know your audience! #scioSEA
-
.@GonzalezIvanF now asks: why do you (panelists) care about working to engage Spanish-speaking people in science and tech? #scioSEA
-
.@ivanorbegozo shares communications technology w Spanish-speaking community as a way of connecting them w the great city of Seatte #scioSEA
-
I love that @ivanorbegozo is teaching me so much about library resources in Seattle, like streaming Hoopla http://www.spl.org/about-the-library/library-news-releases/hoopla-34 … #scioSEA
-
In the US, #Hispanics are more likely to detect cancer when they’re at the later stages. Lack of knowledge = diagnostic barrier. #scioSEA
-
Health disparities in #Hispanics due 2 lack of information= social injustice. Communities need information in ways they understand #scioSEA
-
@LizNeeley: what can monolingual ppl do to connect Spanish-speaking community w science resources? Doty: connect w trusted links #scioSEA
-
