San Antonio, TX
Each year hundreds of educators interested in social media, technology, teaching, and learning gather to build and participate in "unplugged"-style activities as a part of the ISTE (International Society for Technology in Education) conference.
All of the ISTE Unplugged events are free, thanks to the support (and latitude!) given us by the conference organizers, so please come join us. You do need to be registered for ISTE for all activities except for Hack Education unconference and the after-party, which are open to anyone, registered for ISTE or not. A HUGE thanks to ISTE for making this all possible! (And do note that we are helping promote the EdTechWomen dinner, which has a cost.)
Saturday, June 22rd - HACK EDUCATION: Audrey Watters of Hack Education co-chairs our all-day flagship event this year, as we yet again rebrand our "unconference" on teaching and learning (originally EduBloggerCon and called SocialEdCon last year). In our seventh year, this event typically draws 200 - 300 participants from around the world. We start by building a session schedule together and then spend the rest of the day in engaged conversations around amazing topics. More information and sign-up page.
Saturday, June 22nd Evening - AFTER PARTY!: After a banner inaugural partner last year, we'll again have an unconference "After Party" from 7 - 9pm. More details to come, and don't miss this! More Information and signup page.
Sunday, June 23rd Afternoon - GLOBAL EDUCATION SUMMIT: Another return event, the Global Ed Summit is a 3-hour mini-conference organized by Lucy Gray and Steve Hargadon for those interested in globally-connecting students and teachers, and a physical followup to the hugely popular online Global Education Conference. More Information.
Monday, June 24 - EdTechWomen at ISTE 2013: For the first time at ISTE, EdTechWomen will be hosting a dinner and community networking event for women and their supporters in education technology. The mission of EdTechWomen is to connect women across sub-industries and to leverage women's influence in education, now and for the future. More Information.
Monday, June 24 - Wednesday, June 26th - THE BLOGGERS' CAFE: Also in it's seventh year now, the Bloggers' Cafe is an informal, couch-chairs-floor gathering area in the conference center for bloggers, social media mavens, and anyone else who wants to find and connect with others. A beehive of constant activity and conversation, the Bloggers' Cafe makes it hard to go do anything else once you discover it. More Information.
Monday, June 24 - Wednesday, June 26th - UNPLUGGED KEYNOTES: Still in planning stages, this year we are planning a pre-dinner set of short keynotes by an exceptional number of folks who've strangely never been asked to keynote the actual ISTE conference. Get ready! (Not actually sure this is going to take place this year--couldn't get a sponsor for a venue, might have to hold these informally and tweet out?)
For those paying close attention, we will not be holding the ISTE LIVE sessions this year because of conference space constraints. So sorry!
