ISTE Day 3

Wow, what a great wrap-up to an awesome conference. We had so many people from all over the world come by the Pearson booth over the last three days to get personal WriteToLearn demos. Teachers, students, superintendents, directors and almost anyone else with a title learned how WriteToLearn could help them in the classroom and make their lives easier, either through a visit to our booth or one of Jeff Pence's presentations on WriteToLearn today. It's hard to believe that it's already been three days but looking back at all the photos, our new twitter friends and the armfuls of swag I saw ISTE attendees with, it's clear that every one of the 12,000 attendees and exhibitors got something unique out of the conference.

Our first event today was Jeff Pence's breakfast. Not that the food wasn't amazing but muffins and fruit can't hold an audience's attention near as well as Jeff when he speaks about WriteToLearn.

After breakfast we headed back to the booth to meet anyone we'd missed on days one and two.

Later in the afternoon, Jeff gave a more in-depth presentation about WriteToLearn to a sellout crowd.

What an audience! This was 10 minutes before the conference even started.

Jeff takes questions.

If you were at ISTE I hope we got a chance to talk to you about WriteToLearn. If we missed you then you can always go to http://www.writetolearn.net/ for a product demo and if you have any questions, comments or just want to see more pictures of Jeff in action you can find us on twitter and facebook. I'm already looking forward to ISTE 2012 and seeing all of you there next year!
