I am doing presentations to a number of BOT's in my cluster this term, so that start really thinking what they would like their school to look like in 5 years time, and how they are providing a meaningful learning experience for our young people. I missed ULearn due to illness, and was really looking forward to going to Carolyn's workshop "I just want to teach" as I think it begins with the principals and the BOTS David I couldn’t agree more.

Isolated pockets of innovation and passion within a school need to be nourished but do not a revolution make. Wholesale change is what is needed and soon. The challenge is how? I for one want to be part of that change leadership mindset project, I will be in touch.

The internet speed was incredible while sitting in the auditorium. While listening to the keynote speakers I was able to twitter and blog and I also managed to log onto the www.nile.co.nz site, buy Steve's "unleashed NZ" book plus logged onto my bank website and made direct payment. You can not do that with 200 odd others surfing wirelessly without a fairly impressive internet connection. Ulearn08 rocked, thanks Derek, CORE did an amazing job! PS - Just to let you know, your Steve link on your next blog post is not working... Thanks for mentioning my blog with regards to my Ulearn reflections.
