NECC Sessions - Easy To Plan, Hard To Decide
I've finally found some time to plan which sessions I will likely be attending at the upcoming NECC in Atlanta. I can correctly summarize my planning adventures:
- Full Conference Registration: $250
- Round-Trip Airfare from Salt Lake City to Atlanta: $360
- Using Steve Hargadon's NECC Session Tags to plan my week: Priceless!
Thank you, Steve for making the planning so simple. If only the decisions about exactly which sessions to attend were equally as simple. Without further ado, here are my tentative intentions:Saturday, June 23
- All Day - Edubloggercon. I'm not sure of the detailed schedule yet, but the day should be fun.
