I am off to Dubai for 2 days, at the invitation of Don Knezek, CEO of ISTE. The GETEX conference is in full swing as of today. My contribution to the event is with the Global Forum on Technology and Innovation in Education. This is a joint ISTE and GETEX initiative. I am thrilled to be part of this international gathering of educators from all academic levels.
The full program can be downloaded in PDF format.
Two sessions I am moderating/co-moderating:
- Panel on one-to-one computing (with Sam Farsii, Irving District and Dr Betsy Lowry, John Hopkins University)
- Motivating students: Global projects and contests (Dr Ed Gragert, iEARN and Tala Nabulsi Taking IT Global). This session is where I have 30 minutes to talk about the Flat Classroom and Horizon Projects my friend, Vicki Davis and I have pioneered.
I am excited about the learning that is going to take place in Dubai and I am very keen to make new international friends. Watch this space for updates!
