The week-long program includes all of the keynote and general sessions (in white areas) and adds hands-on, project-oriented sessions (in tinted areas) to apply the material from the keynote and general sessions to your personal teaching objectives. Participants will be introduced to new ideas and models for applying technology to their teaching. The week-long program requires a competitive online application. All session plans are tentative and subject to change.
