educational events. More information at www.conference20.com.

Second, I've announced a daily worldwide education conference for the 
months of April and May, Learning Revolution. This is a large-scale event 
which should have a dozen or more free presentations every day. The call 
for proposals will open on March 23rd. You can register or sign up now.
