Panel Discussion (90 min)
Panel: EVO / Earth Day
Moderated by Vance Stevens
EVO stands for Electronic Village Online and is the pre-conference of the TESOL convention and takes place in January/ February each year. It consists of a series of 5-week workshops and has been conducted 11 times already. Some 2000 language educators take part in EVO sesssions and this year some 14 EVO sessions took place. Language teachers can learn for free about Becoming a Webhead, Drama, Digital Storytelling, Digital Tools, PLNs and PLEs, Gamification, Multiliteracies, Video production in SL, Mentoring, Moodle, Podcasting, Social Networking and Social Media.
Earth Day is an annual event which is celebrated in more than 175 countries every year. It was founded by Denis Hayes in 1970 and is an event to increase awareness and appreciation of the Earth’s natural environment. Since the VRT is an eco-friendly web conference, we are delighted that Vance Stevens offered to perhaps include the webcast into the global activities of the Earth Day Community.

I'm here to have fun so no serious stuff for me!
Drat I'm always at the gym at this time on a Sunday evening [for me] ... but that does seem to fit in with the Earth Day theme so I feel I'm still being supportive.
UMMmmm .. maybe I'll watch using the Adobe Connect App for the iPad .. it's a free App for iPhone and iPad.
