Web 2 @ NECC

 17 22358406 57970C0Bca MI’ve been working on the presentation slides for my Telling the New Story spotlight on Tuesday. I’m so lucky this year to be doing my spotlight on the first day of the conference. Usually it’s on the last day, and jet-lag is so thick by then that I have to be led to the podium.
Out of curiosity, I’ve done a quick search of the conference program for sessions using some Web-two-point-O’esque terms. Here’s what I found (in parentheses is the number of sessions in last year’s program):

Blog — 35 sessions (15)
Podcast — 31 sessions (3)
RSS — 6 sessions (4)
wiki — 10 sessions (2)

Interestingly, Wikipedia pulled up no sessions. From some conversations I’ve had with folks who will be attending, I suspect that there will be a lot of interest in video gaming and learning. Video gam showed four sessions.

On the not-so-surprising side, searching for integrating showed 44 sessions, reading showed 39, writing resulted in 39, math showed 62, laptop is mentioned in 25 sessions

NCLB pulled up 14. Last year it was 20.
