[edit] Unconference Presentation
Heads up.
I'm going to tell you a little about me. I'm going to frame it in terms of something I like to call "networked learning". I'll explain it's significance to me and how I got here.
Most important, however, is what "networked learning" means to you and how that impacts us. "Together, better."
Community is not created, it's co-created. It depends on sharing, but is most successful when people have a clear idea of what's in it for them. We have services, most of which are technical. We are going to stretch beyond that a bit today.
The final exam, per sea, involves you participating. :) Conversation.
- What is your passion?
- What can you share?
- What do you need?

It's no longer about the kids. It's about adult learning.

Get off the treadmill and join the network.
It's my passion. It's what I'm sharing. I need people to come along.
