ISTE Unveils 2 New Sites and a Sweet APP!



Now, I know being on the Board of Directors of ISTE means I'm a wee bit biased...But they don't pay me and I've been an avid ISTE association fan & member since I attended my first NECC conference in 2007 - Atlanta - where Kathy Schrock first introduced to me the virtual world of Second Life!

I'd been presenting every year at my state affiliate MICCA now MSET since 1996 but had never had the $ or the gumption to go to the "big show until 2007...when I finally decided that saving all year for the conference was the best investment in my professional growth...and yeah, I think it has worked out pretty well! [grin]

ISTE is committed to being a vibrant vehicle and support for change agents & EdTech professionals around the globe. As leaders of the cutting edge they keep adding cool new stuff that makes being a member of the LARGEST EdTech association in the WORLD even better!

I was nominated for best poem-please vote!

My poem, "An Empty Stage" has been nominated by the Preditors and Editors Poll. Please take a minute to read it, then follow the link if you want to vote for me.AN EMPTY STAGECoiled torso frozen on an empty stage,a living sculpture trapped and placedwith no gown of tulle to hide her agebut with weeping knees below her waist.Framed in light her insides groanwith pent up passion poised for release,she now waits long and alonefor rhythm to carry her into peace.But I remember her unencumberedprance, so light for one who was held downby unfulfilled dreams remembered,floating above her tattered gown.Kathy Stemke 2008Thanks, God bless!
