Will’s personal motivation stems from his roles as a parent and an educator. Now author, blogger, tweeter, and education change agent, Will believes the time is ripe for serious changes in how schools and educators approach new technology and the opportunities they create for expanding learning inside and outside the classroom.

Lynda Weinman, co-founder of lynda.com, will guide this interactive conversation exploring Will’s perspective on how the power of global connections can enhance personal learning for educators and students. The discussion will cover three areas:

(1)    Why now is the right time for change.
(2)    How to utilize connections in our own personal learning.
(3)    A roadmap for schools to transform learning.

Lynda and Will will be taking questions from you via chat in the NMC Connect Room, so please come curious.
