* A Major Discount to Learning 2014.
* Time with Keynote and Featured Speakers.
* Participation in Mentoring Activities.

2. The App Generation by Howard Gardner: Here is a great and provocative book to read.
The App Generation: How Today’s Youth Navigate Identity, Intimacy, and Imagination in a Digital World.
Authors: Howard Gardner and Katie Davis.
Professors Howard Gardner and Katie Davis name today’s young people The App Generation, and in this spellbinding book they explore what it means to be “app-dependent” versus “app-enabled” and how life for this generation differs from life before the digital era. This is a great thought provoker: http://www.amazon.com/The-App-Generation-Navigate-Imagination/dp/0300196210
3. Webinar Pulse Survey - The Design Challenge: We have had several hundred organizations respond to our Webinar Trends Pulse Survey. The results are raising the issue of how we design webinars and how participants design their engagement. Please take a few minutes to add your experiences with webinars to this survey. We will publish the results in a week:
