ICE Conference 2017

It's the Most Wonderful Time of the Year:
​ICE Conference 

Super excited to present at the ICE conference this week and share the excitement behind The Teacher Feast. The Teacher Feast is the longest running edtech professional development experience in the state of Illinois for a reason. It is training run for teachers by teachers, and I get to be a part of the magic. Today in the Zanies Comedy Club we highlighted what makes our experience special: our five to one ratio of AMAZING trainers to participants. Joining me today to talk about their experiences were: Christine Chiodo, Brandon Thornton, Noel Ready, Eleana Heinonon, and Matt Sharp. 

During the Moveable Feast, teachers pick which technologies they want to learn about, build out projects using those technologies, and network with other teachers.  Teachers receive 30 hours of CPDUs for attending, or they can even elect to take it for graduate credit.   If you do nothing else professionally next summer, the Moveable Feast is well worth your time! 

I always learn so much at the ICE Conference and this year one of my Twitter favorites was the Keynote speaker- Joe Sanelippo! If you don't follow @Joesanfelippofc you definitely should! 

Not only did I get to meet one of my favorites, but I also helped promote one of my favorite tools for curating  

content, Symbaloo! It was a first for me, working in a booth during a conference and I have to admit I loved it! Symbaloo is such a great tool that it was exciting to share the power with people who had not used it before or were not familiar with their new product, Symbaloo Lesson Plans.
