Great keynotes and presenters!

Need to publish a twitter hashtag at the start for everyone to use, perhaps a live feed on a screen during the conference

The keynotes were amazing! I followed them to their sessions later and still walked away with more. I loved digital storytelling and this cyberbullying link:

Gurdeep says

Great keynotes! I walked away with a greater appreciation of how the net generation uses social and constructivist learning theory. Kudos!

It as a fantastic conference for our first try. it would be nice if we could build on this - possibly partner with another district to keep the momentum going..

Andrea says

I enjoyed the keynotes too. The practical sessions, how to apply tech tools and integrate into curriculum was appreciated. Im Voicethread'n now!

S. Lane says

It is wonderful when any keynote can keep a group of teachers occupied for 1.5 hours. I absolutely loved the whole 3 days. Bring on more!

Michelle says

Dr. Grainne Conole, a presenter from the OU in the UK live blogged some of the keynotes, and added links and the twitter feed to the OU's "Cloudworks" site!

Brian B says

I very much enjoyed the conference. I agree with Tracy's thoughts on the keynotes. The main theme for most of them was that it is adults who have to change.

Gerry says

I agree-the keys were great. Too bad they were not streamed and recorded. The whole conference was well organized. Way to go Tara and crew!

Lisa R says

The organization was great, the sessions and keynotes well chosen, the setting beautiful, and the comradery refreshing and welcome. Thank you, TechItUp!

Wes says

The calibre of the keynotes were exceptional. I was most impressed with John Seely Brown and his view on storytelling and 21st Century educational paradigms.

Tracy P says

LOVED all of the keynotes. I felt that they all had terrific things to say and I could sense people's thinking starting to shift a bit.
