Dear Friend of ISKME,
We are writing to remind you to join us for the Big Ideas Fest, December
6-9, 2009 at the Ritz-Carlton in Half Moon Bay, California. The goal of the
Big Ideas Fest is to explore and support innovation in K-20 education at a
time when the need to accelerate high-quality learning is truly essential
for our country and our future.

Come immerse yourself in three extraordinary days of inspiration,
collaboration, and change. For example, learn how master tinkerer, Gever
Tulley, founder of the Tinkering School, encourages kids to take risks and
embrace failure. Participate in activities such as the "Action Collabs", in
which we will work together to design and prototype real-world innovations
in education. Network with other dedicated innovators and education
stakeholders who believe that the business-as-usual mode of operation in
education is no longer sufficient.

If you are ready and willing to leave your imprint and impact the relevance
of education in America and the world, register
now<http://cts.vresp.com/c/?ISKME/b1be5bc83b/cc080b2351/47b40c6e92>to
hold your place at this important inaugural event. We hope to see you
there!
