THE professional learning event of the year is about to take place in October. It beats out any face to face conference ever organized, or at least, that's MY opinion. <smile>

Here's the official flyer for the K-12 Online Conference, and the official press release is shared below. I especially like the Slideshare presentation, and teasers for this year's sessions! If you missed this before, I encourage you to take advantage of it now!
