Help the Midwest’s 1:1 districts learn from each other about innovative teaching, learning, and administrative practices that are occurring in their districts;
Build excitement and ‘buzz’ around 1:1 laptop computing initiatives in the Midwest; and
Help others who are interested in 1:1 computing learn more about how to get started and be successful.
The institute is open to anyone interested in 1:1 laptop computing initiatives in P-12 schools, whether they currently are working in such a program or just want to learn more. http://iowa1to1.com/ Session Resources
Is education broken? Is how we educate broken? Is how we assess education broken?
This session will evaluate the quality of our schools. We will discuss the difference between education and learning. We will look at the components needed to change our educational system from something that is endured by our students to something that transforms our students.
