Hello Everyone! Exciting news! We are in the final planning stages of our upcoming National User Conference. "Where is it at?" you ask. . . . FABULOUS Las Vegas! Hosted by the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, this conference is surely one you won't want to miss. Mark your calendars. The 2-day conference begins October 12-13, 2009. We also will be offering a Pre-Conference Training Day on October 11 for those seeking hands-on, half-day trainings on our products.
*Update: It's been confirmed! Dr. Eric Mazur, recognized advocate of peer instruction will be a featured keynote speaker at the conference. Also speaking will be Dr. Derek Bruff, author of Teaching With Classroom Response Systems. I can't wait what to hear what these two outstanding educators have to say! It will be my first time meeting and hearing from them!
To those of you who haven't been to one of our user conferences, you are truly missing out. I have only been able to attend one other one, but it truly is an experience! We offer staff led product trainings, special sessions presented by educators like yourself explaining their uses of response technology in the classroom, networking opportunities and so much more.
If this sounds like something you would like to be a part of, we are currently accepting Call for Proposals. If you have a unique way you are using student response or simply want to share your experience with response technology, then this is a great opportunity to share your knowledge. But you better act soon, Call for Proposals are due August 14, 2009.
Currently Registration is not open, however, expect an announcement sometime next week. I'm telling you, you'd better reserve your spot early. I have a feeling this conference is going to sell out quickly! Can't wait for October! Who else is excited!!!
