Follow Friday – Riding the Wave Conference
Every Friday I share what I believe to be a notable person/organization/school on our social media pages to assist our staff in the development of their online Personal Learning Network.
As we head into Spring Break I want to make sure that Riding the Wave is on your radar because it is a FANTASTIC learning and networking event and a great way to build your ed tech goals in alignment with your plans for the upcoming year. Situated in beautiful Gimli, Manitoba the 2023 theme is focused on, “unleashing your creative potential”, and will feature keynote David Usher who will be speaking to Creative Thinking: The Power To Navigate Disruption. If you are interested in getting an idea of who David is as a speaker, I found a podcast episode on the topic of creativity (see embed below):
The conference hasn’t been in-person since 2019 and I know that I am not the only one who is SO EXCITED to be able to be back in person this year!
2022 featured a structured online on-demand program while 2021 and 2020 played host to virtual events hosted via MS Teams.
The 2023 session list is now available for viewing and I am currently mapping out which sessions to take in. I am hoping to work with some of local MVSD staff to see if anyone else is attending and I will pick my session attendance around their selections so we can bring back the most amount of information.
