The School of the Future World Summit 2008 in Seattle ended recently after completing an energetic agenda. Organizers have added a blog for participants to continue interacting with speakers and others.
The blog appears open also to people who did not attend. This presents a tremendous opening to debate and discuss ideas and considerations affecting schooling worldwide.
Conference planners this year gave priority to instructional and organizational design as well as to technology integration.
The Summit and its blog have offered a venue to discuss practical strategies and demonstrations. Attendees left this Seattle gathering with real world solutions to real world challenges. We’ll see how the blog stacks up to that same ambition.
Summit 2008 Document Library includes 20 links with titles consistent with topics about which teachers blog, including Designs for the Creative Age, Disrupting Class, Teacher E-Portfolios, The Australian Education Digital Revolution. Check them out!
They appear to provide openings through the blog to request more specific information about ways to raise student learning rates with confidence.
While on the home page, check out the links of related interest. These slide sets offer authoritative information useful for supporting many teacher interests in schooling.
Kudos, Summit organizers, for helping teachers reach beyond our personal local interests by viewing education as a worldwide process.
Will we see you on the What’s Possible? School of the Future World Summit 2008 blog?
