Three Avocados :: A Non-Profit Coffee Company Mentoring In 2006, Fortune and the U.S. State Department launched the Global Women Leaders Mentoring Partnership. The program brings rising-star women from developing countries to the U.S. each May to shadow participants of Fortune‘s Most Powerful Women Summit. We then follow them as they “pay it forward” back in their home countries. The program begins with an orientation in Washington, D.C., where mentees interface with women leaders in government, business, academic, civil society and the media. Participants then relocate to the offices of a top American female executive for an onsite mentorship assignment, in which each woman shadows their mentor and learns from the best practices of their host company. MPW mentors have included CEOs Ursula Burns of Xerox, Tory Burch, Ellen Kullman of DuPont, Marissa Mayer of Yahoo! 2010 Global Women Leaders Award Presentation « Back to Intiatives
ScreenDraw: Whiteboarding with Camtasia Studio At a conference I attended this summer, a few math teachers were discussing their options for recording hand-written lessons.

The short video below provides some popular use cases for ScreenDraw as well as instructions for setting it up.
