ISTE’s NECC 2009 Absolutely Great
July 2, 2009 — Lynne M BaileyThese past few days at the NECC conference in DC have been filled with interesting and wonderful sessions, speakeers, demo’s, workshops, and presentations. It’s over now, and I’ll be blogging multiple posts about some of the those items. ISTE did an exception job of organizing things and the VSTE (Virginia State Technology Educators) also played a large part in making everything run smoothly.
I was also very lucky to win a Fabulous prize!!! After enjoying the presention by RM Education of “Singin’ and Signin’” math formulas, I won one of their RM Classpads and Easiteach software. This object is the size of book, like a tablet, and lets you write on a whiteboard from anywhere in the room !! It’s really special and I can’t wait to use it.
Their software provides excellent tools as well. They partnered with “Singin and Signin” and we were treated to the Math lessons and sang about the formula of a cube to the tune of “If you’re happy and you know it” … Check them out at www.rmeducation.com and www.nickynote.com.
It was a great conference; there was so much to choose from, so much to see, thousands of teachers, and great exhibits. I sure hope to go again next year.
I am really excited to be attending this year’s NECC, my first, and the Edubloggercon unconference. I’ve signed up for lots of BYOL sessions and I’ll blog about them about when I can.
