TIES 2005 will be here soon

The annual TIES Education Technology Conference is coming up December 3–6 in Minneapolis. I’m honored to be a “featured speaker” at this year’s conference. I’ll be presenting a pre-conference workshop on Saturday entitled “Introducing the Read-Write Web: Weblogs, Wikis, and RSS,” a session on Monday called “Podcasting 101,” and facilitating a session with some colleagues from schools called “Life in a One-to-One Computing Classroom.” Whew! A lot of prep, but it will be fun. I’m planning to podcast all of my sessions and I’m trying to get the TIES organizers to do some other official podcasting too.

John Pederson beat me to it when he suggested that all of us used the “ties2005″ tag for this year’s conference. Makes sense. He’s also trying to organize a blogger/podcaster dinner. Count me in!
