The keynote speaker Wednesday was Jeff Utecht, whose topic was, "Respecting Students and their Culture." Utecht says, "It is a new digitally connected world and 'I'm not good at technology' is no longer an excuse educators can afford to hide behind." He says schools must meet students where they are, and increasingly that place is in devices. He also said in his speech that teachers are not facilitators; they must be creators of learning experiences.
