Come and meet hundreds of attendees, from the US, Europe, Asia and North and South America, that will share their experiences and projects related to open technologies on a variety of topics such as teaching and learning, leadership and technical issues.

This conference is a “must attend” event ! The 2009 edition will bring two new concepts:

  • The conference is a FREE event , there is no entry charge.
  • The conference will include formal sessions, but also conversations and gatherings around topics of interest in various areas of Open Source.

Teaching and Learning sessions will feature experienced teachers from around the country demonstrating successful strategies and techniques. Technology and Infrastructure sessions will feature experts from around the world on issues such as: connecting to your local Windows or Mac authentication server, managing large and small network deployments, and using Interactive whiteboards in classrooms in Linux and open-source environments, and more! Additional sessions designed for Leadership and Policy will demonstrate how policy initiatives and effective strategies for using Open Source Software help to meet your educational objectives.

We are looking forward to seeing you in Michigan City in October !
