Never too old to learn

Well, folks! If you ever want a prime example of someone who proves that you never start learning, just look my way. I am currently attending the ISTE 2010 convention in Denver, CO, and it is awesome. The sessions have really been great and I am fired up to have my students create new digital image and video projects. The vendors in the exhibit hall are extraordinary and have mini-seminars planned that meet a lot of my classroom needs. The networking with other technology teachers from around the world is phenomenal. We have met people from London, France, New York City, New Hampshire, and have even run into home folk from Texas. It has made me realize, more than ever, just how idiotic our federal and state government is in downplaying and cutting budgets for technology. I mean, there are people coming to the United States from all over the world to gain more in technology knowledge. What do we do? Cut it!
