Stephen Powell is evangelizing! Here are his plans for a NAVCON Blogathon.

At the NAVCON2K4 conference we are going to explore the use of Blog technology as a means of increasing the impact of the conference. To this end we are developing the conference website around the Interact community software technology that also has a Blog built in.

We hope to do three things:
- introduce Blogging to those of the 1800 delegates who haven’t yet encountered Blogs (they all get a Blog!)
- pull together conference keynotes, speakers, delegates, and presenters who already have Blogs before, during, and after the conference
- perhaps most importantly, we hope delegates will individually or as groups Blog their critical learning incidents from the conference and then review these in PD sessions when they get back to their school.

Through doing the above, we are trying to increase the impact of the conference where it matters in the classrooms by easily enabling teachers to review and reflect upon their learning individually and as groups.

Learn by doing. Evangelize by doing. Show, then tell. Bravo!
