This question...asked by Vickie Roethler...is the same question other districts may be asking. Yes, you can "retake" the conference for credit each year.

The course procedure is the same each year...attend keynote & breakout sessions/complete a reflection journal/write an action plan...but the content is different, of course, and the course title reflects the year of the conference.

We are working on the schedule...we have many good classroom implementation sessions upcoming...and some specifically-target administrative sessions...but we have very few sessions that focus primarily on the technology coordinator's work/point-of-view.

If you have an interest in presenting a session from this point of view...pls contact Karen Appleton (kapple...@aea8.k12.ia.us) or Dorothy DeGroot (ddegr...@aea8.k12.ia.us). We are attempting to provide a well-rounded selection of sessions at the upcoming conference.

Thanks, Dorothy
