Each year, this and other forward thinking school districts hold a professional development institute for all of their teachers. I’ve been asked to keynote this year’s event, following Marc Prensky last year. With the keynote and other presentations, I’ll be rolling in a number of topics including:
- Flat World
- Flat Classrooms
- New Literacy
- Web 2.0
- Video Games
- more Web 2.0
I’ll have about six hours in all, and hope to also engage teachers in some conversations about teaching and learning in a time of rapid change.
Online handouts for these various topics are available in wiki format at:
For those in the audience who have their laptops with them, the following link will take them to a chatroom for backchanneling — conducting online conversations parallel to the presentation.
