Global Education Conference


"Smackdown Resources" with presenter Heidi Hutchison

This workshop was very cool. One Google doc that everyone contributed to. It's one thing to see my class doing this but to watch those little flags on a doc and know they are from all over the world is amazing!

Heidi and the participants decided to leave the doc open so we can continue to share.

Much of the vocal discussion is technical how too stuff. I even learned how to download the chat window and find the audio recordings.  http://www.globaleducationconference.com/page/2013-conference-recordings
