So Long FETC; Here’s 22 Tweets to Remember You By
A massive nationwide Twitter outage on Thursday morning slowed the pace of social chitchat on the final day of the Florida Education Technology Conference to a crawl. But service eventually resumed in time for educators to reignite their ongoing, often surprising, conversation about the role of technology in schools.
From game-based learning to the flipped classroom, attendees bandied about a range of potentially game-changing ideas to take back to their districts when they break camp in Orlando.
Here’s our final roundup from Day 3 of the show. Got a big idea? Share it in the Comments.
