ISTE 2012: And the Tweets Keep Coming
The International Society for Technology in Education’s (ISTE's) annual convention is winding down. Though you’d hardly know it at the rate educators and attendees continue to chirp away on Twitter.
From bring your own device and virtual learning to strategies for applying technology in the classroom, there is seemingly no end to the topics that educators at ISTE feel passionate about — and, if the list of Tweets assembled by our editors here is any indication, those conversations will extend well beyond the convention’s closing session Wednesday afternoon.
Check out what your colleagues are saying — and, if you haven’t already, join the conversation. You still have a few more hours!

According to Sir Ken Robinson, Teaching is an art form. We need to get rid of this notion of teaching as a delivery mechanism. #ISTE12”

I'm getting tired of people speaking about digital citizenship as "don't put bad stuff online". What a weak and useless idea. #iste12

Not teaching internet safety & etiquette is like letting kidsloose in a wood shop w/o instructions! Scary... #iste12

Best quote of the day here at #iste12 goes to @drlorielliott, "It's the teaching, not the tools that make a difference." I'm inspired!

Seeing a shift at #iste12 from apps to application, from tech to humans using tech. It is about time.
