MACUL Bound

I recieved confirmation from MACUL that I was officially registered on Monday. With that information, I met with my principal and discussed the importance and relevance that this conference would be considering I am pursuing my Master's Degree in Educational Technology. My principal agreed to cover the cost of the sub since the registration fees were already covered. Woot! I am very excited to be attending this conference---one of our special eduation teachers is presenting along with a former co-worker who is now in charge of Mt. Morris's technology departmnet. I am sure there presentations will be insightfull. I've also been flipping through the schedule of events/key note speaker booklet that I recieved about two weeks ago and getting a general idea of the different sessions I would like to attend. I'm sure this conference will be extremely valuable and informative and I am looking forward to gaining insight to help me on my road trip to become more technologically literate! ha ha...

    How did you receive confirmation? I have received catalogs, but nothing like confirmation...I wonder if I should call and check into it?

    I was wondering how you received confirmation, too. I called them to see if I were registered, and they told me I was, but I haven't received the material from them yet.

    It is a great conference. Too many sessions to choose from, though! I want to go to so many of these that I can't decide which I will be able to do. I have to register for the pre-conference sessions, though, because I am going to go on Wednesday. I want to get as much from this as I possibly can. I opted to stay at the Holiday Inn, even though it means a walk. I hope it is not cold that week! I wanted the free parking and Internet!

    You will definitely have to fill me in on the pre-conference sessions. I will not be able to head out until bright and early Thursday morning. (My husbands eyes are going to be opened a bit in terms of caring for the kids while I am away... But I know he will be fine!) My colleague is presenting at the conference so she already as a room reserved at the Grandway Am.... I think that is the hotel that is attached. She told me that I can stay with her.
