In addition to the great content provided, the change I like most is the shift to a 20 minute maximum for each presentation. This made each conversation much more accessible and easily digested, while I drove around on errands, walked the dog, while reading or catching up on other work, or waiting for the kids. Each nugget was dense, rich, and filling.

I look forward to the conversation during the When Night Falls event which will be starting soon. If you have enjoyed the conversations during the conference, please consider volunteering to moderate an hour at this event, as there are still open slots through the 24 hour experience. No experience is necessary and there will be great mentors to help guide you. Give back to the community who made this possible for you.

I hope to catch you there.

Today and for each of the next nine school days, four presentations will be posted online for your viewing. The conference conveners have made the presentations available in audio only, and video formats. Each is less than 20 minutes in length, making them very accessible to you to view.

Over the past two conferences, whose presentations are still available, I have been introduced to tools such as wikis, Moodle tricks, and GabCast.

When you have a chance, check out the different presentations. They will be worth the time and energy invested.

Also check out the three remaining live events, the two fireside chats (October 25th @ 9:00 a.m. and October 30th @ 7:00 p.m.) and the When Night Falls (October 31st – November 1st, from 7:00 p.m. – 6:59 p.m.) These events allow you to connect with educators around the world , sharing the thoughts and ideas collected over the next two weeks. You can join in even if you haven’t had a chance to sample the presentations.
