I have been able to see some of your work over the course of this program and have been extremely impressed with your concept. I believe it requires forward thinking to create such a model as an online performing arts school. This is the type of thinking that is appreciated at conferences. I think most people who would attend have seen the entire spectrum of standard practices. You are offering something new and fresh and I hope that you have success in presenting it.

I’ve done more research on the conferences so that I can narrow my selection down to two conferences. In addition to the GaETC I had mentioned in a previous post, I am also interested in the FETC – Florida Educational Technology Conference…a “conference that brings education leaders and technology experts together to exchange techniques and strategies for teaching and learning success. Known worldwide for its outstanding program, FETC provides educators and administrators the opportunity to explore the integration of technology across the curriculum—from kindergarten to college—through hands-on exposure to the latest hardware, software and successful strategies. FETC offers a wealth of information for all education professions—teachers, principals and deans, district administrators, curriculum designers, media specialists, technology directors and others.”
At first I felt a little timid about preparing anything for a conference because my ARP was just a very first baby step in creating an online performing arts school for students K-12, but as I have worked more on my final publishing project, I’m realizing that the research I did in my Literature Review as well as the data I compiled in my ARP is really valuable information which will be exciting to a whole host of educators, administrators, and principals out there.
