We're on the final turn before my biggest event of the year, the 8th Annual Maiers Literacy Bootcamp — and this year the intensity is packed into a single day. We'll be looking at how to design a great student experience, core curriculum, habitudes, and several breakouts on using technology and techniques to enhance teaching and learning.
One amazing thing about this event is the response I've received from out of the area. Not just outside of Iowa (though several are coming from various states), but several outside of the continent! Actually had a few teachers from Brazil and Australia inquire about coming.
So…
We'll be making the keynote (and possibly the closing segment) conversations accessible to the global community We'll be doing so via UStream, Cover-itLive, and Twitter.
(If you're thinking about registering at the last minute, stop thinking and just do it — or just show up at the door. It's already a full house…but why not?)
It's been less than two years since I've begun laying digital footprints, and I am so thankful for the friends, teachers, guides and collaborators because of the tools that are available to use. Would you believe two years ago, if you'd have searched my name, you'd find one single picture. Unfindable two years ago. WOW!
So stay tuned. Though only a small portion of the day will be available Live, I'm sure many of the presenters and participants will try to keep the conversations alive in the breakouts.
Thanks for a great two years! Here's to a smashing day on Monday.
