Just don't pee in your pants :-) Sounds pretty exciting... I last attended NECC in 1995 in Baltimore (I got to be a tourist in my hometown) where I think I met Helen Barrett for the first time... she always remembered me since then. Sign of the old times- there was a session called, "If I SLIP and Fall on my PPP, Will it Hurt?" PS- Someone ha a full history of conferences: http://web.uoregon.edu/ISTE/NECC/history.html I did not actually recall what year I attended Giddy? Just don’t pee in your pants :-)

Sounds as if you had another successful workshop with the Discovery Educators in the Chicago area!! I have been reading about the awesome Southeast DEN conference that was held in Atlanta last week. It undoubtedly was a great event as well as the one in Chicage. I look forward to seeing you at NECC next week. Hopefully, I will be able to attend one of your sessions.....I will be the regional poster co-chair for NECC 2007 in Atlanta and will be shadowing the current chair; however, I am determined to arrange some time for PD. Am wondering what made you so giddy! :) Jerrie Will, Thanks again for the great presentation you did at KSU for the Blog2Learn workshop….As I told you earlier, it was awesome….Thank you, thank you.

So many incredible things out there available to teachers with the read write web. If anyone wants to check out what made Will so giddy in Chicago at the DEN event (other than spending way too much time at Midway) check out the Speaking of History podcast www.speakingofhistory.blogspot.com Episode #30 which has Will's 90 minute keyonte about read write web tools and education. It was a great presentation - a little on the long side for a single podcast at 90 minutes, but a great podcast for the car while driving on vacation or a couple of early morning walks. Thanks for spending time with us in Chicago and I look forward to seeing you at NECC next week.
