net2con: Hey, teacher, leave those kids alone! . . .

This is Mike, of Computer-Using Educators, live blogging the 1:45-2:40 netsquared session led by Adam Frey (Wikispaces), Heddy Nam (Never Again International) and Liz Gannes (Red Herring).

Given the focus on non-profits, it makes sense that netsquared would include education into within the topics covered by the event, but I had hopes that it could be fully realized theme. Perhaps next year at "netcubed"...although it is refreshing that the themes focus on impact in the general sense - but maybe this is for the best. Education (and by extension, educators) tend to want to separate ourselves from other industries and "real world" applications, when we really should be thinking about how to integrate, which is precisely what netsquared has done.

In any case - i'll be collecting reflections, insights and commentary from this session.
