I thoroughly enjoyed the one day I was there and can honestly say I learned from each workshop I attended. I will have to check out John's site; he's such a valuable part of our group of educators here in South Carolina (I hesitate to call it a PLN after our conversation with Chris Craft at our Tweet Up Tuesday evening!). Glad that your Words 2.Oh! session was successful again on Thursday. I love the whole idea behind the session - and because there are so many tools that address that topic, it is hard to limit it to just a few. I'm sure those in attendance got a slew of great ideas to try in their classrooms. If you do decide to present this at SCASL in March, I'll have to request that whatever session that the Advocacy Committee decides to do is not scheduled at the same time as yours so that I can attend. Love your idea of a video to share with our legislators to show them how valuable ETV and its resources are to education! You rock! Cathy,

I didn't get much time in the vendor area this year (too busy actually going to interesting sessions), but it was shiny. It's why I've always thought of ISTE/NECC has the great love-fest to all things that go beep. Come back to ISTE next year! Doug Hi Cathy Jo,

Thanks for sharing links to some of the resources available online for those of us nonattendees to still benefit from the plethora of wonderful sessions and ideas. With the heat back upon us, I have the perfect excuse to stay inside on the computer! Like you, I was unable to attend ISTE.

There are professional recordings out there somewhere. For ALA it must be more about profit (big business model) than sharing (21st century model). I’ve always wondered the same thing about ALA.

Many of the sessions they recorded were so chalk full of great information I've watched them multiple times to make sure I glean every ounce of useful information! Since I'm from Colorado, it was quite easy for me to attend the conference. Won't be able to attend next year (for various reasons), but wish all the attendees tons and tons of technological fun!
