I haven’t been to Ames, Iowa in ten years, so I’m looking forward to a beautiful October drive over there next week. I’ll conduct a couple roundtable sessions on social media at the annual Midwest Regional Middle Level Conference sponsored by the Iowa Association for Middle Level Education. This is the 22nd year they’ve offered this event and they’ve lined up tons of breakout sessions and keynotes by Roger Taylor, Larry Bell, and the NMSA’s Theresa Hinkle.
