ISTE 2010 Begins!

The International Society for Technology in Education (ISTE) hosts an annual conference that is anticipated to draw 20,000 technology enthusiasts this year. Formerly known as NECC (National Educational Computing Conference), the name change reflects a move toward a more global focus for both the organization and the conference. This conference is widely attended by technology coordinators, administrators, and library-media specialist--and especially teachers.

Thanks to gwyneth and to the ISTE Connects site for introducing me to the first new tool I will share with you: GoAnimate.com.

ISTE is my must-attend conference each year. I am always delighted by the absolute enthusiasm of attendees about the use of the technology to enhance learning and engage learners--including me! At this conference, I can see where educational technology in our district will be headed in a few years, and I am able to meet with and learn from so many who have already tread the paths that we will be traveling.

During the next week, I will be highlighted people, products, and plans that I think are directly relevant to our district's technology growth or are so interesting and exciting that I just have to share them. You can follow me . . . and you can attend ISTE yourself through the many virtual offerings that you can access from home. You can even use ISTEVision for video-on-demand of key sessions.
