Dr. Kari Stubbs, Vice President of 21st Century Learning, joined 100 people from 20 countries to celebrate the ten year anniversary of the Horizon Report at an alumnae board retreat last week. She represented BrainPOP on the board for the 2010 and 2011 K12 reports. With well over one million downloads and 27 translations in the past ten years, the NMC Horizon Report series provides a key strategic technology planning tool. To follow the live conversation from the event, search for the hashtag #nmchz on twitter. David Sibbet, the world’s leading visual facilitator, facilitated the event, where participants developed a set of recommendations and insights that will inform a major 30-to-40-page publication that is the key outcome of the retreat. How do you take advantage of the Horizon K12 report to facilitate your district’s technology planning?
