#EdtechChat Chimes In on ISTE

Monday night at 5:00 pm PT/ 8:00pm ET is the time to tune into Twitter and  #edtechchat to stay updated on what all the tech educators are talking about.  This week many are still in recovery mode from 3 hot days in San Antonio while others, didn’t make the trek, but want to connect virtually,  jump into to talk about everything good at the year’s biggest edtech conference… either way this week’s ISTE wrap up includes many great insights .

The complete archive of last night will soon be up on the #edtechchat wiki, but in the meantime, here is Getting Smart’s own version of storify…
