As we are using the ISTE framework as a guidling resource in our technology integration plans I thought this post from Jenny Luca who attended the ISTE conference in Denver was worth sharing.
Some interesting points from Jenny's reflections:
- 17000 attendees - that's a big conference!
- Lots of discussion about iPad as an educational tool with advantages like battery life countered by flaws like not being able to edit google docs
- razzle dazzle at the conference – bands playing to introduce keynote speakers
- digital literacy a focus of many sessions – The art of crap detection 101 being a highlight
- Microsoft guide to digital literacy 'critical thinking in the classroom'
- something about twitter hashtags which I don't really get
Jenny's poster presentation on ning can be found here.
