Chat with Sec of Ed Arne Duncan
Living in the nation's capital has afforded me some unique opportunities. For example the Dir of Ed Tech for the US Dept of Education spent a day in my classroom and, as a result, I got to meet (in a small group) with Arne Duncan. My students have also had the chance to meet with him on Digital Learning Day. I even ran into him at a local track while I was running with my son and he was playing basketball with his daughter.
Now you can chat with outgoing Secretary of the US Department of Education, Arne Duncan via Twitter. There are two hashtags you can join him which are "#ce15" and "#edtechchat." The meeting is at 8 pm on October 26th.
