National Educational Technology Plan Event in SL Today 6-8pm SLT/PST -- Today is the Second Life public forum to provide input from the public to Obama's advisory team revising the National Educational Technology Plan.

We have been lucky enough to arrange volunteers for alternate locations and web streaming. Your collea...gues who are not in SL will be able to watch and participate if they wish. Here are the alternate locations.

ALTERNATE VENUES:

* Web:
http://www.livestream.com/metaworld6

* Metanomics Partner Locations:

Metanomics Studio:
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Metanomics%20II/156/184/23

Rockcliffe, Classroom B:
http://slurl.com/secondlife/Rockcliffe%20I/150/219/68

This isn't quite perfect. We aren't sure if we can stream the video to the inworld locations, and the web chatroom associated with the livestream may not be able to be captured. It does not connect to the inworld chatbridge connecting all six locations. People may need to watch on their web browser and join the discussion inworld. If someone does watch on the web and is successful in capturing the chat from that, please share it with me so we can include it in the report to the NETP committee.

Please feel free to prepare your thoughts on the future of edtech in the US as either a notecard (mailboxes are available at the ISTE venue entrances) or on the website:
https://edtechfuture.org/

Many thanks, and I look forward to tonight's amazing discussion!

an astronaut facing death on a doomed exploration of Pluto, chance
brings a way to survive, but is the cost worth it? He just might make
it if he can "Wait It Out." Story in voice.
