A New, More Interactive NECC

This year's NECC is the most hands-on and interactive ever! New program offerings include:

Model Lesson sessions presented in a fish-bowl style model classroom featuring 21st-century technologies—attendees participate as students or observers.

Hands-on "BYOL" (Bring Your Own Laptop) session presenters actively engage attendees in discovery during the session itself.

The Bloggers' Café features active and participatory blogging events and activities.

Moderated Problem/ Solution Panels focus on successful solutions to commonly faced challenges with interactive dialogue between audience and panelists.

And, back by popular demand, the Hands-On Open Source Lab will once again enable participants to explore popular open source applications and resources.
