Over 50 present in Carrizozo for Oct. 9 C21CL Conference

Thanks to our hosts, Becky Borowski, Carrizozo Municipal Schools, Region IX, and the Carrizozo Culinary Arts Program, our October 9, 21st Century Learning conference was a success. We were pleased to have four sessions available in the morning and three in the afternoon. Choices included Student Radio Broadcasting, Interactive Whiteboards, iPod Touch (and/or Zune) in the Classroom and Digital Storytelling. Sessions this year were different from previous conferences in that we had more educator team participation in the workshop presentations.

C21CL is also pleased to announce that we had our first Teacher Talk Luncheon. Thanks to Tina Glatz, Melissa Rucker, and Sandy Johnson for sharing about Wikis, Document Cameras, and Online Courses during this portion of our conference day.
