This is the 30th anniversary of NECC, National Education Computing Conference, and the 8th NECC I've attended in the past 10 years. 2010 NECC will be changing it's name to ISTE, International Society for Technology in Education Conference. This name change reflects the educational transformation of using technology, not just computers, in the educational environment.
My plan was to blog each day of the conference, beginning Sunday, June 28th. However, at the end of the day when returning to the hotel I discovered that the hotels wireless is only in the lobby and the "tied to your desk" connection was not functioning because the hotel is being updated to wireless throughout. Probably a good thing because I would have been up late into the night.
This blog will include links, activities, general comments regarding the direction of technology in education and maybe my opinions. Not all materials will be of interest to everyone. So, pick and choose. I've streamlined the information because of time constraints. If you'd like more details regarding a link or concept, just let me know. Blogging should not be a static conversation, so I'd like to hear from you.
