What Conference topic or resource have you found most useful?

"I'm an instructional specialist in math, so I liked the session dealing with middle school math. I liked that (the presenter) was well versed in teaching math from a concrete point of view. She did a good job going from concrete to abstract when teaching fractions." —Oswaldo Alvarenga, Dallas, TX

"I enjoyed Mel Levine's address because it was nice to believe that all children can learn. When you hear people say 'I don't know what to do about this student,' you can now take that motivation and use it to find their strengths so they can improve and be successful. —Lisa Semrow, Brodhead, WI

"I enjoyed the people who spoke about intrinsic motivation—people's successes and what works. It is always a big challenge to motivate kids. I got to hear different perspectives and ideas to use in my classroom." —Ryan Finkbeiner, Milwaukee, WI
