December's #DitchSummit
The Ditch That Textbook Digital Summit is a nine-day, FREE virtual event in December. It brings together some of the brightest minds in education to discuss technology, pedagogy and more. After the 2016 #DitchSummit, I chose to read the book by Matt Miller during the fall of 2017. I completed all nine sessions of the 2017 #DitchSummit and have continued learning via connections on Twitter made during this summit.
Here is the list of excellent presenters. I encourage you to search for some of their free online content regarding how they are revolutionizing education:
Tanya Avrith and Holly Clark - Combining Tech and Solid Teaching Effectively
Kim Strobel - The Science of Happiness
Dr. Pooja Agarwal - Brain-Friendly Learning that Works
Eric Curts - How in the Google Did You Do That?

Jon Corippo - Plan Smarter, Not Harder with Edu-Protocols
