This is a free event, with a focus on inclusion and participation. All sessions will be publicly available to attend through the online Blackboard Collaborate platform, and every session will be recorded and made available immediately following the conference.

The conference theme is the use of social media and Web 2.0 in teaching and learning, and the conference URL is http://www.SocialLearningSummit.com. To be kept informed of the latest conference news and updates, please make sure you are a member (free) here at Classroom 2.0. This will also allow you to correspond with the presenters and other members, and to comment on sessions and discussions.

Hello from Greece and thank you for the chance you gave me to present in this global summit

I was wondering about training sessions where can I find the link for them?

Thanks again and good luck to all participants

@Penny--go for it!

Comment by Penny Hildinger on April 5, 2012 at 3:55pm

Tempting, I have never presented in this form before, in fact, I have just begun attending webinars.

@Ken:  The sessions will all be recorded, and while you don't need to "register," being a member of Classroom 2.0 will ensure you get communications about the conference. Thanks for asking!

Comment by Ken Sajdak on April 3, 2012 at 5:00pm

Two questions . . .

1. Do I need to "register to attend any sessions?

2. Will the sessions be recorded and available to view later?

@Shambles/Chris:  #sociallearningsummit is long, but maybe more intuitive than #sls2012?

Comment by Steve Hargadon on April 1, 2012 at 8:19am

@Clara:  I'm not sure a research proposal would attract many attendees.  You do not, however, need to have a completed paper or lesson plan to present.  Consider this an opportunity to share practices with other practioners.

Hi! Would like to know what exactly is required for the presentation proposals? Are research proposals considered too? Or only completed papers or lesson plans are accepted?

Comment by Steve Hargadon on March 13, 2012 at 9:56am

Sheryl:  your question is good.  You are welcome to submit as long as your session is not an advertisement for your professional service or product.  Thanks for asking.

Comment by Sheryl Nussbaum-Beach on March 13, 2012 at 9:53am

So would that mean I am not welcome to submit? Or that I am welcome to submit as a person not a company representative sharing a product?
