I think we "as voters" are getting caught up in the terms that Kevin has used here in his proposal. What this proposal brings us is stories from the trenches about kids, teachers, technology and what's really happening. If that doesn't get participants thinking about their classrooms and how they teach, what will??
I, for one, am tired of listening to the same ole keynote speakers taking bits and pieces of others ideas to form a keynote about the future of education. No offense, they've been great but it's time we, as a conference, turn the keynotes over to the participants..this has been a great idea ISTE..wtg!

Interesting topic Kevin, I like the idea of looking at our students as different learners than those of the past instead of categorizing them by learning style. How does the technology affect today's kids, what difference does it make in the way they learn and how they will prepare for tomorrow's jobs that may not even exist yet! You've got my vote on this one!
