    LEARN NC, the organization that makes Instructify possible, will hold its 2009 conference on October 1. North Carolina All educators can attend the conference for free online.

    Though the face-to-face morning session is full, you can log in virtually and get lots of great information during the afternoon.

    What to expect

    In addition to a presentation from Instructify writers Bill Ferris and Jason Don Forsythe, you’ll see sessions on sharing free resources, technology integration, professional development strategies, and more. Interact with fellow educators via web conference software, Twitter, and the online back channel. Virtual participants may join for the entire afternoon or for whatever portion of the conference is convenient. For a full rundown, please see the conference agenda.

    Who should attend?

    Teachers, media specialists, technology coordinators, professional development coordinators, administrators, and other leaders in curriculum and instruction will all benefit from this conference. Whether you are teaching students in the classroom, or working at the school or system level developing curriculum and delivering professional development, the LEARN NC conference will provide new ideas and identify opportunities for collaboration to help you make the best use of your scarcest resource… time!

    Cost

    Free.

    Technical Requirements
