We've launched the AACE Social Networking page w/ links to all our blogs & social networking places on the web! http://aace.org/networking/

ED-MEDIA Social Networking

From George Siemens, Program Co-Chair, posted at http://blogs.aace.org/edmedia/:

"We want the event to be more participative and more engaging, while still meeting the high academic standards ED-MEDIA has exhibited in its past. It can be difficult to strike a balance between emergence and tradition, between novel and established, between innovation and existing systems.

It's a balance that will only be achieved through your input. During the conference this year, we ask you to Twitter, blog, tag, and offer suggestions."

ED-MEDIA Blog

In addition to the above excerpt from the ED-MEDIA blog, we will post interviews from Keynote and Invited Speakers. As a start, Craig Montgomerie, Executive Committee Chair, has posted his interview with Tom Reeves, an ED-MEDIA Keynote.

ED-MEDIA on Twitter

The conference may followed on Twitter prior to and during the event. A large screen monitor will display the ED-MEDIA Twitter feed at the conference.
