The schedule is below.</div> <br> <div style="text-align:center;"><b>Please forward to your friends and colleagues - this event is free!</b></div> <br> The <a href="http://learningrevolution.com/" target="_blank">LearningRevolution.com</a> project has over 200 partner organizations and bridges schools, libraries, museums, and the work, adult, online, non-traditional and home learning worlds.
