Keeping Up With Technology

Jim Louderback, PC Magazine did a session on "Technology to Watch For - Devices that are changing learning" (scroll down to find the session if you are interested in listening to Jim's trend analysis). As I reviewed the video of this session last weekend, I realized just how important these sessions are for me. I count on these types of conference session and my participation in the Masie Consortium conference calls and region meetings to keep up with all the technology changes. I just do not have the time or the energy to play with and explore all of the new and emerging technologies. So what is happening in my learning process...I am becoming more conscious about how I learn.

Blogging my 2006 learning has also been a really interesting experience for me. Just the process of writing this blog has forced me to focus on my learning process. Without this blog I am sure that my learning process would have been "over come by events" and the conference learning experience would have drifted out of my conscious mind.
