Did You Go To NECC?

[Michelle Davis]

If you did go to the recent National Educational Computing Conference in Texas, what did you see or hear that was interesting and that you might apply in your own school or district? Did you go to Digital Directions' panel on "The Knowledge Gap?" What did you think?

I did attend. I brought a small core group of teachers, a building principal and our district technology integration specialist. A conference of this magnitude is just too overwhelming for one person to try to tackle. We blogged live from many of the workshops for the benefit of the remainder of our cohort back home.

There were tons of things incorporating NETS standards and TPACK that will be used often back in my building.

Here is a link to what I think is one of the interesting aspects of a conference this size.
