Global+Education+Conference

The [Global Education] conference (November 15-19, 2010) is a collaborative and world-wide community effort to //significantly// increase opportunities for globally-connecting education activities. Our goal is to help you make connections with other educators and students, and for this reason the conference is very inclusive and also is provides broad opportunities for participating and presenting.
 * What is it?:**

There is no formal registration required for the conference, as all the sessions will be open and public, broadcast live using the Elluminate platform, and available in recorded formats afterwards. There is a limit of 500 live attendees for any given session. Links to watch the sessions will be posted the weekend before the conference begins, in the "[|Sessions]" and "[|Schedule]" pages, and recording links will be listed in the session descriptions soon after each day's sessions.
