Tweets of the Week 19th – 23rd November

With less than a week to go before ONLINE EDUCA BERLIN 2012, the focus this week is on the theme of this year’s conference: “Reaching Beyond Tomorrow”. We look at some ideas that focus not only on the short term innovation of incorporating technology, but on how education will develop beyond the introduction of advances in technology.

Also, don’t forget to follow our Twitter feed (@OEBConference), as we’ll be live-tweeting from the conference next week!
