TEDxNYED

TEDxNYED was an all-day conference examining the role of new media and technology in shaping the future of education, the conference took place in New York City on Saturday, March 6, 2010. Presenters, including Lawrence Lessig, Michael Wesch, David Wiley, Jeff Jarvis, Gina Bianchini, Amy Bruckman and many more were invited to share their insights and inspire conversations about the future of education. I stumbled upon this conference due to a tweet I saw, and I watched and listened to a number of these presenters. As an educator, I was so impressed by the overall message of the presenters. New media and technology have created a fundmental change in the way education will happen at every level, and as educators we need to understand our students and the relationship they have with new media and technology.
