Flat Classroom Projects and live events allow students to embrace global awareness and cultural understanding and foster digital citizenship. [Julie Lindsay and Vickie Davis]

An alternative to teachers who are concerned about distributing phone number. The service allows you to set up a number that you can then direct to voicemail or other phone numbers based on the who is calling. For example, if it's an unknown number, you can send it directly to voicemail. If it's a personal call, you can have it go to your home number, or if it's a parent calling, you can have it rerouted to your classroom. Google Voice will also transcribe voicemails to text.

Will Richardson's presentation. At a time when we have access to two billion potential teachers and a world of knowledge, we and our students need to begin to shift our learning practice in some significant ways. We need to be adept at reaching out to others, at parsing information, and at solving real problems, and more. This presentation covers eight of these shifts that we need to integrate into every class regardless of age or discipline.
