- Conversation Description:
What if we were to leverage the connections in our networks to start a meaningful national conversation among parents around the new faces of learning and change in schools? If we were to jump start that conversation with a well-planned "event" in the Fall of 2011, what would that look like? How would we do it?
This conversation will draw upon the wisdom of the participants to create a basic structure for such an event which we can then crowdsource to a greater audience after the conference. We'll get as far as we can in creating a project plan, and create a structure for continuing planning throughout the year.
