Last week carried a few important events. Everyone was well aware of Valentine's Day on the 14th. One of my children celebrated a birthday. And, the annual NCCE conference took place, returning this year to one of my favorite places, Seattle, WA.
This year I was excited--and honored--to be part of a panel session with fellow Microsoft Innovative Educator Experts Richard Snyder, Cheryl McClure, Tamara Truax, Andrea Tolley, and Melissa Wrenchey. We served as the OneNote Avengers Panel Discussion, or forum designed to expose attendees to examples, tips. And tricks from real educators' Class Notebooks. If you weren't at NCCE or were but missed our session, click HERE to access the OneNote book that shares the content we covered. If you're an educator using OneNote, it's a great resource.

If you've never attended the NCCE conference, I highly recommend it. Very well organized with a healthy variety and volume of sessions. I suppose it's a "mid-sized" conference when compared to bigger ones like ISTE and FETC, but it still has a "pro level" feel to it. Granted, the expo hall is not as big. It also, for whatever reason, does not host any poster sessions, which I have learned are fantastic ways to engage with topics and techniques in a window shopping atmosphere.
Another exciting component of this year's NCCE conference was an exclusive day of learning, exploring, and having fun together at the Microsoft headquarters in Redmond. As a Microsoft Innovative Educator Expert, I was invited to participate in the all-day summit with fellow MIE Experts. It was a fun, educational, and--I suppose most of all--inspirational day.
