Although I had hoped to be able to attend NECC 2007 this year (since it is being held in Atlanta), I am going to have to be there virtually.

I don’t know how “live” I will be able to read about sessions, since I will be with my girls in Germany during this time.

Since I will be a full time Technology Integration Facilitator at my elementary school next year, as well as in charge of Professional Development for our faculty and administrators, I am focusing on certain topics.
Here are the sessions that I am interested in following:

• Anderson, Larry: ‘Technology Policy: Keeping Your School—and You—Out of Trouble!’ (SUP221) in B405 at 13:00 on Sunday (also: Kathy Anderson, Joseph Moreau)
