Technology in Education Amidst the Arab Spring
With the dramatic occurrences of 2011 in Tunisia, Egypt, Yemen, Syria, and elsewhere in the MENA region, educators are re-imagining the implications for education and education technology policies. Social networking technologies played and are playing a key role in mobilizing people to call for and bring about change.
What does this mean for the role these and other forms of technology will play in education in their changing societies? iEARN educators from Tunisia, Lebanon and Yemen will share their experiences and thoughts about what is happening in their countries and the region, through live and virtual connections to the CoSN Conference in Washington, DC.
Join this session Wednesday, March 7, 2012 at 2:00 pm - 2:50 pm EST (19:00:00 UTC/GMT) in this Blackboard Collaborate Room.
