Thoughts, Impressions, Inspirations, from #Bett2015
This blog post by Eva was about a convention in London called #Bett2015. This was a convention on technology in education. She speaks about the changing technology and how it is shaping the way we learn and teach. #Bett2015 provided attendees with a wide variety of technology to learn about. There was a great quote in the blog that stuck out to me, "Teachers make the difference, not the app." I think that this is incredibly important for teachers to remember with all of the technology in the world today. Technology has not replaced the teachers, it has only aided them. Eva was able to meet the creators of all the technology and apps that she loves. My comment was: Hello Eva Buyuksimkesyan, my name is Shelby Begley and I am a student in EDM 310 at the University of South Alabama. I really enjoyed reading about #Bett2015. This seemed like such an amazing event to attend! The use of technology is increasing at an incredible rate, and attending events such as #Bett2015 is the only way to keep up with the growth! I loved how you stated that technology is shaping the way we teach and learn. That is so incredibly true. Technology is a beautiful thing that can serve as a major asset to 21st century education. Thank you so much for sharing about #Bett2015! I look forward to hearing more from you.

#ETZ Summit to Shape the Future of Education
This blog post by Eva was about an event that will be held in Istanbul. The event is called #ETZ Summit to Shape the Future of Education. This seems like a very interesting event! Parents, teachers, students, and many more can attend this event and learn about all the emerging technologies and classroom concepts in the 21st century. This would be an event that I would love to go to if I was able to! There are not many opportunities that we are given to sit and all learn together. Staying on the same page is so extremely important for parents, teachers, and students. My comment was: Hello Eva Buyuksimkesyan, my name is Shelby Begley and I am a student in EDM 310 at the University of South Alabama. I really enjoyed reading about these wonderful events that Istanbul will be hosting. The event, Educational Technology Summit, sounds like a wonderful event! I think that this a great opportunity for parents, teachers, and students to get together and learn about all the new emerging technologies and classroom concepts. With the massive amount of new concepts constantly being created, it can be difficult for teachers, parents, and students to stay on the same page. I look forward to hearing about how #ETZ Summit to Shape the Future of Education goes! Thank you for sharing.
