People often ask me "how do you keep up with all of the new tools on the web?" Other than being an avid reader and having a great PLN, I take advantage of the many free professional development tools on the web. One such amazing resource is the K12 Online Conference. This annual event features online sessions from the world's educational technology leaders. While many presentations are streamed live, all sessions are archived and can be viewed 24/7.

This year's session topics include computer-based math, creating ePortfolios, educational apps, creating self-grading quizzes using Google spreadsheets, and Edmodo. In a time where funding for professional development has basically dwindled to nothing, it is awesome to still have some free opportunities still available. The best part: I can attend a conference from the comfort of my own home.
