When you can’t be there (75:365)

Learning from Bill Sterrett, Erin Klien, Amber Teamann, Joan Young and others!

As I sit in my home in southern New Jersey this weekend, I know that there are over 9,000 dedicated, committed, innovative educators in Los Angeles for the national ASCD conference. Obviously, I would rather be in sunny southern California this weekend, but sometimes I just can’t be at everything!

 

So what is a connected educator to do? Well, it was really easy and simple…. I followed the #ASCD14 hashtag on twitter. Throughout the weekend, I have been learning from my Professional Learning Community (PLC). I learned about Daniel Pink’s keynote through tweets and folks sharing their notes on google (Thanks Dr. Gentile). I was able to hear about the sessions, and follow links to find more information. I know that Sir Ken Robinson rocked the house as the evening Keynote.

 

It just took a few minutes here and a few minutes there to feel part of the learning!
