FETC 2008

Hi Everyone,

I am here at FETC 2008 in Orlando, and it is another exciting conference. Our entourage has been here since Tuesday and we have been attending informative FCITL meetings, as well as dining on delicious meals provided by various organizations and vendors.

It has been fun seeing "old" friends and we have been learning a lot about the current, as well as emerging trends in technology. I hope we will be able to share what we have learned with many of you in the upcoming months.

It's time to go to my next session...believe it or not, it is on creating educational games and is called "Why Game Development Matters."

Watch for continued updates from FETC 2008! If you ever have the opportunity to attend this conference, you need to make sure you do. It is so interesting how educational technology has changed so much over the years that I have been attending.
