A message to all members of The Future of Education

Below are this week's public, free, and interactive Webinars
through LearnCentral.org, the social learning network for education that I work
on for Elluminate.
The time of the events below will show up automatically in your
own time zone when you are registered in LearnCentral and when you have chosen
your time zone in your profile. Event recordings are posted and available after
the events if you aren't able to attend them live. If you are looking for an
easy calendar import / RSS feed for these events, you'll now find a link on
your calendar page or the calendar page of specific groups!
Be on the lookout for Australia-time-friendly events as part of
the new Australia Series, Spanish-language Webinars from the Aula 2.0 Series,
and student-oriented sessions from Students 2.0! We also hope you will consider
hosting your own public webinars using the LearnCentral public
room--instructions are available by joining the "Host Your Own Webinar" group
on the main announcement
tab (http://www.learncentral.org/group/3432/host-your-own-webinars).
