On March 1, 2014 my wife and I attended the West Essex Technology Symposium (WETech) at West Essex Regional HS. In this episode’s thought I share my thoughts and reflect on this free day of professional development. The keynote speaker was Dr. Joyce Valenza of the Rutgers School of Communication and Information. I attended Promoting Excellence In Education Through Social Media and Don’t Just Publish it…Broadcast it!!! These sessions were presented by Bill Krakower and Scott Rocco and Jeff Bradbury, respectively.
