Back by popular demand, both conferences will highlight sessions specifically for administrators!
We need your expertise and would like you to share how you integrate technology in your classroom in order to personalize learning. Or, are you an administrator who is willing to share how you leverage technology leadership in your buildings? We are looking for elementary and secondary teachers and administrators who are willing to present a 50 minute session spotlighting your technology integration passions.
We are accepting session proposals through the end of September 2016 so we can have the conference schedules posted by mid October 2016. All primary presenters will receive a complimentary registration for the conference (1 presenter per a session).
We would love to hear how you are customizing learning for students through leveraging the use of technology in your classrooms. Session proposals fill up fast, so don't delay in posting your session ideas below!

It's hard to believe that this 2015-2016 school year is quickly coming to an end. I have been so excited for Spring to arrive! May brings nourishment, refreshment, new growth, and a lot of greens, pinks, and yellows as a sign of warmer weather to come! This week also brings with it a great celebration and attitude of thankfulness known as Teacher Appreciation Week!

Many of us have been using Discovery Education streaming for quite a number of years and we remember even before when it was called "United Streaming". However, something many teachers do not realize is that Discovery Education has continued to build and create adding many more resources than just videos like its prior "United Streaming" years. This blog post is part 1 of "Discovery Education is so much MORE than videos" highlighting some really cool features that have been added in the past couple of years.
