Those of you attending the MACUL conference this year will want to take a look at the conference brochure prior to getting your registration packet. The brochure is available in PDF format at the MACUL Conference website. Download it on your iPad and open it in iBooks for viewing later. There is also an online planner. Sign up for a free account and then select your sessions. You can view sessions in various layouts and also view your friends schedules and connect through Twitter or Facebook.
Other resouces available for a more enjoyable and productive conference are the conference blog and the MACUL Space Ning. If you're a Twitter fan follow the #macul12 hashtag. And now for the hard part... picking out those sessions! There are always so many that I want to attend!
I started this blog a few years ago after attending a MACUL conference as a means to communicate what I had learned. Every year about this time I get excited about the upcoming MACUL conference. I fire up my blog and get ready to post. I post before, during and after and then the fire fades and my blog posts begin to dry up. Mundane tasks fill in the gaps in my day and my blog sits ignored. So what do I do about that? Since one of my goals is to communicate more with you, our CCHS teachers, the plan is to post something every day. Doesn't matter if it's earth shattering or not. I'm just going to post about some tech tool, idea I read about or other find in the world of technology in education. So... Hopefully you'll find what I'm sharing useful and thought provoking and you'll return to read more. I think they made a movie about a similar situation once...
Welcome to the Tech and Learning blog. Here I plan to introduce new or newly discovered (or re-discovered!)technology tools that can be useful to educators either in the classroom or for their personal learning network. Hopefully you'll find some new and interesting items here!
