One of them is &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.hpiie.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">HP Innovations in Education Worldwide Summit<\/a>&#8220;. It took place in Redwood city (near San Francisco) and attracted more than 100 educators from more than 25 countries. During the summit I had a chance to meet with experts on educational technology from all over the world. I would like to share with you some of the information I learned in addition to what you can find on the web site:<\/p>\n<p>1) ISTE &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.iste.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">International Society for Technology in Education<\/a>. This web site is certainly worth visiting. If you join the organization you will be able to collaborate with lots of very creative educators. I recommend you considering it. Their next conference will take place in Denver, CO, on June 27-30, 2010.<\/p>\n<p>2) There is an explosion of resources on using tablets in SMET. I met with colleagues who have created amazing resources for teaching with tablets as well as amazing software. Some of it is free. If you and your students have tablets check &#8220;Classroom Presenter&#8221;, &#8220;Ubiqutous Presenter&#8221; and &#8220;InkSurvey&#8221;. Just search them up. Tablets have lots of exciting possibilities.<\/p>\n<p>3) Check forums in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.nsta.org\/\" target=\"_blank\">National Science Teachers Association<\/a> and other organizations. There is lots of interesting stuff out there and some might be useful to you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>During the Winter Break I was able to attend two conferences.
