Captain's Blog 2010:

To Boldly Go Where We Never Would Have Gone Before

Date, Location and Lodging:

This year, we will meet at the offices of WestEd in San Francisco, beginning at Noon on 5/12 and concluding at Noon on 5/13, just prior to the start of the Education Writers Association National Seminar.  We encourage you to attend the EWA seminar; please follow the above link for info on the EWA event, including the seminar hotel, which we recommend for your lodging needs.

Agenda:

The planning committee is putting the finishing touches on what we think will be a stimulating agenda.  Joining us will be Tracy Dell'Angela, the new Outreach & Communications Staff Director at the Institute of Education Sciences.  We are also hopeful of enlisting the participation of a Bay area education reporter to discuss the changing media landscape with us and how to anticipate the next platform that could shape the communications arena. Finally, we will continue the popular "Sizzle/Fizzle" and "Nuggets/Noodles" sessions of previous years (see below).
