I just spent the better part of an hour composing my latest blog post, complete with links to a ton of great stuff going on in West Michigan ed tech.  And as I as adding my LAST little tidbit, I accidentally navigated to a different site on the same tab I was writing on. I'm sure you can guess the outcome....argh! save...save...save! (How many times do I need to learn that lesson?!?!)

So following is a condensed version:

TEDxGrand Rapids returns this year with companion Livestream education event, May 10. Get all the deets on their Website. Application for Livestream event ends Mar 30. Go yourself and sponsor up to 10 students to attend with you. (saving)

MACUL annual conference Mar 7-9. Waaaay too much great stuff to choose from! Tops on my list? BYOD, flipped classroom and elementary tech literacy. Looking forward to a dee-lish SIG luncheon at San Chez Bistro. Coming from out of town? "Chick" out Laugh Fest while you're here. :) (saving...)

Finally, my current favorite apps? Songify on my iphone and Plants v. Zombies on my iPad. I'm sure there's an educational purpose to them both! ;) (posting...)
