Yes, it is officially SUMMERTIME! In a little over a week, ISTE21 LIVE will begin and I am so thrilled to be presenting at three playgrounds. In addition, in a few days, I will also be presenting at the ISTE TEN Spark Summit. I am so excited about all of these opportunities. But they are just the start of an amazing summer of learning. To TRANSFORM, you need to not only seek connections outside of your school, but find your PLN. All of these learning opportunities are great ways to get started on transforming learning. They all help you reach beyond your expectations. Check them out and see if there are one or more that you would like to attend.

I am so excited about this one and not just because I am presenting THREE sessions. The keynote is by the founder of Hello Ruby, Linda Liukas.
