EduCon 2.2 is both a conversation and a conference.
And it is not a technology conference. It is an education conference. It is, hopefully, an innovation conference where we can come together, both in person and virtually, to discuss the future of schools. Every session will be an opportunity to discuss and debate ideas -- from the very practical to the big dreams.

The National Research Center on the Gifted and Talented (NRC/GT) is conducting a study entitled What Works in Gifted Education: Excellence and Equity in Educating Gifted Students. The NRC/GT is creating a defensible and equitable identification system, developing challenging math units, and designing and implementing performance assessments for all levels of 3rd grade students in general education classrooms in your school district.
