What's all the Buzz: Sitting on a Panel to Sort Hype from Reality

Today I am appearing on a panel with a couple of blogging pros to talk about learning with New Media at the Meridian Learn and Know Conference.

Learn & Know 2010

Is Twitter or, even, the iPad a viable learning technology? What's real, what's buzz?

Today at the Westfields Marriott in Chantilly, Va. I will be on a panel of Buzz-Breakers who will give our best insights about what defines learning technology, and what it's really capable of.

Who am I on the panel with:

Susan Smith Nash blogs for the "E-learning Queen" as well as elearners.com. Her most recent books include "Moodle 1.9 Teaching Techniques" and the "E-Learner Survival Guide."

Bower blogs at "Learning Leaders Forum." Mark has over 20 years of experience as a learning management executive and consultant for companies like IBM. He writes about learning and performance management solutions when he's not solving his clients' workforce challenges.

It promises to be a lively and interesting discussion and I am looking forward to it. If you are going to be their, please ask some great questions!
