Tomorrow I will be arriving in Palm Springs for the Annual CUE Conference. This will be my third year attending and this year I am honored to be an invited showcase presenter. I find such amazing energy at CUE and am thrilled to be included in this fabulous group of dedicated educators who are committed to using technology to improve student learning!
I will be presenting three sessions and I've created a Google Site that I will share with the participants. I'm including the links below in case you find them useful.
The Human Touch: Increasing Your Online Presence with Video: It's an old story that online success rates trail their face-to-face counterparts. But when are we going to realize the connection between social presence and success!? Wake up folks -- you are the missing link.
I hope you find this useful. If you'll be at CUE, please say hello!
I've been a part of this conference for years now and it's always an incredible value and is wonderful way for K-20 educators to connect and engage in lively dialogue with colleagues about important trends in online education.
