Oregon COEDTech Day 2011


This April the yolink education team was pleased to participate in the Central Oregon EdTech Regional Education-in-Technology Day (COEDTech Day), which took place in La Pine, Oregon. Approximately 300 educators from across Central Oregon participated in the full-day COEDTech event. The yolink team presented topics in three sessions, two focused on 21st century research skills, and one session was a round table discussion on popular educational web apps. Both the yolink browser add-on and SweetSearch were well received, and the ability to seamlessly share search results with Google Docs was an added bonus as the state of Oregon is moving in the direction of utilizing Google Docs statewide.

COEDTech Day was a wonderful opportunity to not only share yolink and SweetSearch with new users, but to also provide training and support to schools and educators bringing the 21st century research skills to classrooms across the state of Oregon. For those not able to attend COEDTech Day 2011 see a few Flickr highlights.
