Yes, it’s coming again in October 2007 - another outstanding professional development opportunity that can go on and on… The K-12 Online Conference! Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach posted a great summary of the conference and review of what took place last year on her blog, I’d encourage you to read it. Note that Frost and Sullivan just published an article focusing on what a tremendous professional learning event K-12 Online 2006 was!

Most importantly, please share your thoughts and input about what K-12 Online 2007 should include as topics, and how it should change and evolve from last year’s conference. I’m thrilled to again be working with Sheryl, Darren and Lani to help convene the conference. I think we are in the process of reinventing professional development for teachers. What the Trussville, Alabama school district did with K-12 Online last year can and should be done by MANY more school districts in 2007-2008. Whether or not your district embraces mixed online and face-to-face learning or not, you certainly can! Our conversations continue! Please share your input to help make K-12 Online 2007 even better, and mark your calendars now to participate!

8-12 October 2007 Pre-Conference
15-19 October 2007 Week 1 (Strands 1 and 2)
22-26 October 2007 Week 2 (Strands 3 and 4)
27 October 2007 When Night Falls

Our call for presentations will be released in upcoming weeks. Stay tuned!
