In a period of civil unrest, rebel students have invaded our schools using smart phones, netbooks and tablets.

- Who:
- Betty Ann Fish

- Session One

Towards an e-Book Quality Rating Tool for Early Elementary Literacy Instruction
- Who:
- Jeremy Brueck
- When:
- Session Two
- Where:
- Room 300
The e-book is a rapidly growing alternative to the conventional book even for very young children. What the shift from page to screen might mean for young literacy learners remains to be seen. Equally uncertain is how the e-book fits in the classroom as a curricular tool and instructional resource.
