Looking for a conference with a difference? What story do you have to tell? The #motm12 Unconference is built around stories for the purpose of making strong connections with other passionate educators who are integrating ICT with pedagogy.
We have been awash in literature about Finland lately. Mostly because something about what they do works! Of the many articles that I have read, this one in particular does a great job of sharing in a clear an succinct manner a good many of the pieces of the puzzle.
Also, for those in the Vermont area September 27th, Tony Wagner will be the keynote speaker at a conference on high school transformation. He will also present and discuss his documentary "The Finland Phenomenon" in a special workshop after his keynote.
