2017 VSTE Annual Conference

Welcome!

The VSTE Board of Directors and Conference Committee are excited to have you join us at the 32nd Annual Technology in Education Conference. #VSTE17 promises to be the best ever.

Use the schedule to plan your conference. VSTE will NOT be providing a printed copy of the schedule so if you prefer paper, please print your own. If you create an account with sched.com, you can save and share your favorites as well as print a personalized schdule.

IMPORTANT: While we encourage you to save and share, indicating interest in a session DOES NOT guarantee a seat in a session. All sessions, with the exception of Promethean’s Escape Room, are first come, first served.

I have been a teacher for 25 years. I took 10 years off to raise my five children! I have seen many changes in education and after attending the VSTE 2017 Conference, I learned how to embrace these changes in technology. I would like to share my story and motivate you to teach the 21st Century skills with ease.
