After reading the article linked above, I learned just how important it can be to have conferences that involve technologies. Our technology is steadily evolving and as future teacher candidates we need to be as up to date as possible on ways to teach our children. As I was reading I saw where it stated the children were watched and got to interact with the technologies and I think everyone needs to see how it is done through each child. Teachers need to know when and where it is appropriate to incorporate such things into their lessons and where it may help or even hurt the students. I think this conference should be something required of every teacher because it will keep us all on the cutting edge and help us when it comes to teaching inside as well as outside of the classroom.
