First Session - October 31, 2011 Welcome to the Educational Technology PD Group! I am so honored to spend seven weeks in face-to-face environment to explore many interesting topics with you. For our first session, I would like to start it by sharing two much read articles. Please take some time to read it prior to our meeting. Please bring a laptop to our meeting, if you already have one. Let me know if you would like to borrow one.
