The EdTech planning committee is excited to announce the keynote speakers for Ed Tech 2010 which will be held at Randolph Macon College in Ashland, Virginia.
The first day, February 3, will feature Dr. Tim Tyson (pictured left), who was named one of Georgia’s High Performance Principals by State Governor Sonny Perdue. A former principal at Mabry Middle School in Cobb County, Georgia, Dr. Tyson has been referred to as the “Pied Piper of Educational Technology” by The School Library Journal. His innovative use of technology to maximize student achievement has been featured in a variety of national education magazines.
Dr. Edward Berger (pictured right), current Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of Virginia, will speak on February 4. He has authored over 25 technical publications, and secured research funding from the National Science Foundation, Air Force Office of Scientific Research, and Sandia National Laboratory. His present technical research focuses on nanoscale material characterization and atomic force microscopy, while his educational interests include instructional design using technology – especially tablet PC’s and podcasting.
