Composing a TweetBook for DevLearn 2009

Increasing Learner Productivity with New Technologies

Participants are looking for information on new technologies, passing road blocks that are limiting us from using new technologies, facing generations using new tools – but faculty are not.

My Favourite Part of the AG08

Okay…go on….guess…. For a bunch of people immersed in doing everything and all online, digitally, and virtually the one thing I kept hearing over and over (and reading on blogs) was how great it was to meet face-to-face.
