Many teachers connect this way to learn about the latest in edtech tools, educational ideas and methods in teaching, and joining my fellow Nebraskan teachers for the weekly chat gives me a comfortable hour that flies by and is full of ideas and collaboration. Worth the drive are EdCamps in Kansas City and St. Louis, Montana.

The parallels between the early days of the world wide web and today’s edtech scene are surreal. There is a lot of noise in edtech today, mostly coming from technology and consumer marketing-oriented companies. In the nineties, this included. Badging, micro-credentials and curation technologies are making this a reality. Participate.
