Learning Solutions 2015 - What I'm going to try to live tweet!

It's the night before one of the most fun events of the year (and one that's happily NOT in Vegas): Learning Solutions!

I just had an amusing day of playing absurd pirate mini golf with my work siblings, AKA: two of my awesome co-workers, and my mom. It should surprise no one that none of us are going to ditch L&D for a professional mini-golf career, but we had a great time in spite of our lack of athletic ability.

Now I'm just settling in, getting excited about my schedule, and thinking about the sessions I'm going to see. Once again, I'm going to try and live tweet this thing, and here's my intended schedule for the next three days. It may change a little bit here and there, but this is at least what I expect I'll be live tweeting each day:


Wednesday

8:30-10:00 AM - Keynote - Return on imagination
Speaker:Tom Wujec

Oh look... it's my own session! Yeah... I somehow suspect I won't be live tweeting this one.

2:30-3:30 PM - The second-screen experience: Designing a paperless classroom
Speaker: Andrew Vecchiarelli
Andrew is one of the awesome co-workers I mentioned earlier and you should totally go to his session. Also, I've seen his content and it is GOOD!
