Why do I, and over 20,000 of the best and brightest educators from around the world travel to ISTE each year? Is it the new tools and strategies, the chance to attending great sessions that improve our practice, or finally meeting our “internet friends”, taking selfless and proving to our families they are real?
Yes. Yes. And Yes! But wait, there is more!
