Sessions like - I'm Leading, Is Anyone Following? Preparing Students for the Future
We need to start by understanding that we are preparing students for the world that is their future, not the world that is our past. Educational leaders must understand that the jobs of tomorrow are going to depend on students who can use technology to efficiently create, persuade, collaborate, communicate, innovate, and evaluate in knowledge-driven workplaces. This session will guide you in the process of changing our “Educational Environment” that include the 21st century skills that will be required for students to thrive in the future.

Build it or They Will Come
Social networks, web-based communication and collaboration tools, and “powered-up” student challenges are not only engaging, they teach 21st century skills while delivering core curriculum. Bring all your machines and mobiles to participate as this session becomes a giant classroom with challenges and resources reaching across boundaries --and time. Virtual environments, Web 2.0, and a network of contacts will be available and tapped for the challenges—and replicable in a classroom. Learn why bricks and mortar districts need to adopt these strategies quickly or risk the erosion of their enrollment base.
