Quotes Shared by PLN from NECC

Although I am in Argentina as NECC (National Education Computint Conference) is taking place in Washington, my PLN (Pernsonal Learning Network) is present and always willing to share.

Through Twitter and Cover it life, I am catching snippets of the conversation. As I am coming across quotes that catch my attention, I am compiling them in this blog post.
