Hello, #TECHtalkGA! I'm Angela, Dist ITS for MS/HS in Forsyth Co.
I met so many awesome ppl at #GaETC17, but I was probably most excited to meet @mrhooker
A1: Hi! I'm Maggie! I'm a Technology Training/Integration Specialist for the Cobb County School District. I was super excited for more Leslie Fisher at #GaETC17#CCSDInTech#TECHtalkGA
A1: Justin Mewborn Vickery Creek Middle School ITS Forsyth County. Met a lot of people. Was thrilled to meet people who frequent this chat. #techtalkga
A1: Good evening, #TECHtalkGA friends. Cat Flippen, Director of Personalized Learning & Innovation for Jackson County Schools.
And I was excited to meet many new, passionate people in general. I did enjoy meeting Leland Melvin, though! :)
Lisa Wilbanks, Jackson County, Media Specialist. This was the first year I made an effort to really get out an meet people and it was SO rewarding! #techtalkGA
Kayla, Personalized Instruction Coach for @FCSchoolsGA. I didn't get to go to GaETC this year but am excited to learn everyone's takeaways! #techtalkga
A2: I️ was a small session with @iamryanwhite where we just had several districts bouncing ideas off each other. Super helpful to either reinforce what we’re doing or give us new ideas. #TECHtalkGA
A2: #GaETC17 was incredibly lucky to score @jcasap for a session! I love listening to him each time he speaks and this was no different. #TECHTalkGA
The same applies to @crafty184. That man teaches me something new EACH time I see him. Amazing!
A2: There were waaaay too many to pick a favorite! I always love @lesliefisher Leftover sessions. Tony and Chris never disappoint either!!! #techtalkga#gaetc17
A2: @mrhooker Did an awesome session on social media and it's relevancy in the lives of our students. Gave some great ways to use social media in engaging ways. #techtalkga

What cracks me up about this and is also illustrative of how amazing social media is — I already felt like I had met and known @cristin_kennedy, but only just last week at #GaETC17 met her in person!
Can’t wait to chat and collaborate, Cristin! #TECHTalkGA
A2 Really enjoyed the session on converting libraries into learning commons. 1st time I had seen the data that showed such a powerful effect #techtalkga
I did not get into any of the breakout sessions like I had wanted, but I was able to track down some more information from some of the presenters! Social media is awesome. #techtalkga
#TECHtalkGA A3: OMG, I missed so many! I always do, but this year seemed even more pronounced!
I really want to see some more of the coaching sessions by @ksuiteach and the SAMR session by @KenyaRansey & @leahkurtz2012!
A4: Present two sessions and one of them was in the same size room that some of the featured speakers were in. Freaked out for sure but LOVED that I did it. #TECHtalkGA
A4: I think the best thing I did was meeting and connecting with new friends with similar passions to grow my #PLN - supporting sustained learning 24-7! #TECHtalkGA
A4: the best was a session just for KSU alumni and students. It is an annual tradition and we all get together and share the best of the day. Love my @KSUITEC tribe #ITECEdD#TECHtalkGa
Q4: I stepped out of my comfort zone and threw together two presentations w/ a few days notice to help fill in the gaps. #Hecticbutrewarding#TECHtalkGA
A3: @tonyvincent had 2 sessions Friday that I was really interested in. He does a lot with illustrations that I would love to share with Ts as a piece to enhance Ss writing and engage the reader #TECHTalkGA
A4: Conversations with #PLN, new and old. Some of the most powerful discussions as well as truly enriching F2F catching up!
#GaETC17 truly is a fellowship, almost like a family reunion, even if we are meeting for the first time. #TECHTalkGA
A4: went to a lot of coaching sessions to see how other schools/districts/coaches were connecting with teachers. So many great ideas and tips #TECHtalkGA
A4 I was @brainpop Booth & presented Create Cool Content w/ Clips & Keynote. I love talking about #edtech w/ teachers and ideas how to implement it into their lessons #TECHtalkGA#ADE2017#GaETC17
I would love for #GaETC17 to add just ONE more day! I think a lot of us tried to squeeze in a lot in a short amount of time which caused us to miss a lot of what we wanted to see. #techtalkga#GaETC17
That was my session too...first time ever presenting. It was super intimidating, but turned out well, thanks to the support of some of the awesome people here tonight!
#TECHtalkGA
A5: videotaping sessions and posting to a YouTube channel so people can view later who were unable to go to a session. May not be able to do all of them but I feel like we need to work on getting this going. #TECHtalkGa
Exactly what @iamryanwhite said— more discussion-oriented sessions.
The lovely and special @MmeBurgess herself had a session at the end of Friday that became an incredible group discussion! #TECHTalkGA
I'm SO BUMMED that I missed this! I totally thought that it was on Thursday! Someone be sure to Tweet at me next year so that I don't forget!
#TECHtalkGA
Thanks to everyone who came out to our #TECHtalkGA F2F meet-up on Tues pm at #GaETC17!
We hope to do it again next year with an even better turnout at #GaETC18!
A5. I’d love to see more comparisons w Microsoft & Google. Like ‘it works thus way here, & that way there’ Many districts have both. #TECHtalkGA#GaETC17
A5: How tech coaches build a relationship with teachers and build in time for training. Also how they transform hesitant teachers into “change agents”! #TECHTalkGA
Moderating a fun AND controversial topic? Sound like my kind of discussion! 😎
Be ready for this one (and thank goodness for the new 280-character limit!) #TECHTalkGA
Same, girl! It’s so much fun to finally connect with our Georgia #PLN F2F. We need to make an effort to rectify this issue at whatever next conference we are both attending! #TECHTalkGA
#TECHtalkGA We would be honored if you would like to join us for our #floydpln Twitter chat Thurs from 8:30-9 pm . The topic: Thanks and Giving. What else😊
