Monday Medley: Ditch That Textbook Digital Summit



Hello Everyone,

Happy Monday!


You are probably completely over the idea of spending more time in front of your computer. However, I wanted to share some information about a free online conference for teachers in December that I signed up for. It’s called the Ditch That Textbook Digital Summit. There are nine video presentations from awesome presenters on topics related to tech and solid teaching and learning. Get your free ticket at: DitchSummit.com.


HOW IT WORKS: New presentations are released every day from Dec. 21-31 (except Christmas Eve and Christmas Day). They remain available until Jan. 8 so you can re-watch or catch up on any you’ve missed. They’re pre-recorded, so you can watch them whenever you want until Jan. 8. After that, the summit ends and the videos are unavailable to watch anymore.


FREE PD HOURS: You can get FREE PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT CREDITS for watching the videos. There’s a form to fill out after each presentation, and you’ll get an automatic PD certificate emailed to you.


Sign up for the digital summit at DitchSummit.com.


This year’s new speakers include: 

  • Austin Kleon, author of Steal Like an Artist
  • Jam Gamble, educator/speaker/entrepreneur extraordinaire
  • Nate and Angie Ridgway, co-authors of Don't Ditch That Tech
  • Toney Jackson, teacher-poet and all-around inspiration
