We’re excited! I hope you’ll let us know when the proposals are due soon. This is such a great conference and I listened to your podcast (from Wesley’s blog) while walking on the beach and spring break. It really fills me with hope!
I can’t wait! I’m considering developing a flyer (yes, I know, how analog of me) to send out to NH schools to raise awareness and encourage participation!
Thanks again crew!

[...] I’m wondering if for K-12 Online 2007, we shouldn’t try this “reverse presentation” idea: Rather than asking presenters what they want to present on, maybe we should ask conference participants what THEY/YOU/I want to learn and then share that list with potential presenters? I’ve never heard of something like that happening at a conference before, and it might be an innovative approach to address different learning needs. Paul Clark from the University of Nebraska-Omaha talked to me a couple of weeks ago about doing a “title analysis” of presentations at different major edtech conferences, like NECC, FETC, and TCEA over the past 5 years. Certain terms and ideas definitely move into and out of vogue. Truly useful educational technology professional development needs to focus beyond the conference preso “vogue words of the day” and also explore emerging trends that may not yet be mainstream. I also think there are strong needs for presentations which are not single-vendor focused, but rather attempt to explore available options and give people the “lay of the land” for a given technology or context. That’s the stort of thing I’m wanting for commercial eLearning curriculum options. Listen to this blog post as a mp3 audio file [...]
Last year’s conference was by far the most important professional development conference I have “attended” in my 20 years of teaching. I now have class blogs, wikis, and have even begun podcasting. I am still trying to match the pedagogy and technology with the student, but I am in a much better place than I was last year at this time because of this conference.
When will you be inviting proposals? I enjoyed last year’s conference so much I’d like to offer my services for this years…
We will be announcing more details and plans including invitation for proposals the first of May.
We are excited for your interest and support… stay tuned.
