Streamlined Open Source Solutions
Conference Portal delivers streamlined and easy-to-use Open Source and Web 2.0 resources for teachers, instructional specialists, presenters and educational consultants.
Conference Portal provides technology tools and application tactics to speed promotion of technology integration in classrooms and labs.
Schools, colleges and universities invest heavily in technology: hardware, software, infrastructure and outsourced services...and these institutions skimp and in the IT Staff required to maintain this investment. Since measurable student achievement and measurable learning outcomes fail to bring a return on these technology investments, IT staffing proves to be a "cutable budget expense." And, since a demonstrated Return on Investment (ROI) was seldom a factor in technology purchase decisions; equipment fails to be replaced at reasonable refresh timelines, updates and upgrades to equipment fall by the wayside.
The result: Teachers are blamed for failing to integrate technology into instruction, and the cycle of technology stagnation perpetuates.
The Conference Portal offers an antidote to these downward-spiral, stagnation cycles by delivering usable materials, by providing results-focused training, and by "Telling it like it is" so that teacher trust our recommendations.
