This showed up in my inbox yesterday… Just a reminder that two years ago they had a full day of K-12 online learning sessions contained in a specialized track (which I suspect they’d do again if they received enough good proposals). Also a reminder that they partnered with the Association for Educational Communications and Technologies (AECT) a year or two ago to manage a research track.
