2. Is this the right session for you?
Do you consider yourself a technology Newcomer?
Do you go to conferences and think if I could only do that in my classroom my students would love it?
Have you been to a conference and saw something amazing and thought, “I could do that but no one took the time to show me!”
Have you asked a presenter how to do something and they said, “Oh it’s easy, anyone can do it.”
Finally, do you leave the conference with lots of new theories but void of the practical application?
If you’ve answered yes to two or more of these questions, than this is the session for you.
