Global Education Conference
I am presenting at the online Global Education Conference on Tuesday November 16th at 8 AM EST. The conference has over 300 free sessions. If you are interested, I will be doing a session on using Google Docs with your students and peers.

In a few days I will give you the Elluminate link and you can attend the session for free.
