At the first annual EduBloggerCon in Atlanta on June 23, 2007 it was
suggested that regional EduBloggerCon events be held to expand
participation. In that spirit, the Third annual EduBloggerCon "East" is
being planned just prior to, the Building Learning Communities Conference
(BLC10) <http://novemberlearning.com/blc/>in Boston, MA.
<http://novemberlearning.com/blc/>
The 2010 BLC conference <http://novemberlearning.com/blc/>runs from
Wednesday, July 14th through Friday, July 16th in Boston, MA. The conference
is held in downtown Boston and is sure to be another exciting and inspiring
learning experience. Lisa and I will be presenting, along with many other
great educational leaders <http://novemberlearning.com/blc/main-sessions/>.

EduBloggerCon is based on the idea of an "unconference," and is being
organized by the participants in real time on this
wiki<http://www.edubloggercon.com/EduBloggerCon+East+2010>.
Another way to describe this event is as a "collaborative conference," where
the conference attendees help to build and create the experience. Different
than the inaugural event in Atlanta, we've not actually scheduled any
sessions yet, and we're going to do so together as a group at the start of
the day--based on the submissions of sessions that attendees have indicated
they are willing to facilitate or would like to learn about.

Last year's unconference <http://www.edubloggercon.com/BLC2009> was a
wonderful learning experience attended by educators from all over the
country. I hope to see you this July in Boston. It really is a great time!
