Alan November
Monday, June 25, 2007
9:00am to 11:00am
Alan November's
presentations are thought-provoking, creative, and
motivating. He has an uncanny ability to tap into the needs
and energy of his audiences. He makes people think,
question, and also important, laugh. His background as a
dorm counselor for at-risk students, classroom teacher,
technology coordinator, alternative school director, city
planner, new school designer, university lecturer and years
of consulting around the world give him a breadth of
understanding and educational experience. Alan's personable and
friendly nature, coupled with astute observations about the
economy, education and technology make him hugely popular,
entertaining and engaging. For Alan, it's not the technology
itself that is important; it's the way we use it. His ideas
about global communication, collaboration, assessment, and
critical thinking have inspired schools, governments and
corporations around the world to rethink and redefine their
approach to education and technology.
