Upcoming Maine Conference

I’ve been writing all morning (since very early), and I thought I’d take a break and count. So I pulled up the PDF of Maine’s state education technology conference program and counted some words. First of all, I am really looking forward to being able to work this conference. I have lots of friends there in Maine, and, well, it’s Maine, and we all know the adventure that they are engaged in.

It’s a small conference in terms of the number of presentations, as there will be one day of preconferences workshops (three of them) and one day of concurrent sessions. That said, here’s the tally.

Web 2.0 Words

• Web 2 5
• flickr 1
• Blog 8
• Podcast 10
• RSS 1

Other Words

• NCLB 1
• MySpace 0
• Test 1
• Best Practice 0
• Music 3
• Art 1
• Reading 0
• Math 4
• Literacy 5

Interestingly, four occurrances of the word, literacy, were preceded by technology or tech. the fifth occurance was preceded by twenty-first century.
