No snow today, but it's quite chilly. The sessions start at 7 am, but thank God, Starbucks is open at 6. I put on my coat, hat, gloves and grab a cup of coffee, as I head out to the convention center. It's about 5 blocks away. Without the hat and gloves, my ears and fingers would freeze off.
I had selected one talk about Internet 2.0, but I switch over to the room next door, where they are talking about cognitive overload. It seems that sometimes students get so overloaded with the material they are covering that they start falling behind. They have a great handout, but they were focusing a lot on kids, so I took the handout and ran. I promise to share it later. I went next door to the talk about the Internet and that was great. I got some good tips and ideas that I will also share later.
The next talk was about teaching content through English medium (you see a trend here, don't you). Well-presented but nothing really new.
For some strange reason, I got stuck in two commercial talks, so the day was not the best, howeve that first workshop was definitely worth it.
