Share This Offer

Personalized Learning Summit Logo

 This year we are reimagining what "workshops" at a conference can look like. As part of 2018 PL Summit, we will be hosting small group roundtables. Each roundtable will include 8-15 participants and will focus on a specific question that the facilitator will host a 75-minute conversation around. The facilitator will select the question, prepare a few resources to share, and design an agenda to guide the conversation and ensure all roundtable participants are able to talk and share resources.

The application process for facilitators is now closed
