Hello Jo,
I left some "Lost Property" details at the VITTA registration desk on Monday but I was not confident that the attendant knew how to file it so I am emailing you as well to be safe.
I lost the case to my reading glasses. It is black and rather cylindrical in shape. Unfortunately it has no other identifying features on it (name, etc).
I hope it may have turned up during a clean up.
I believe I left it in the conference room during the session presented by Nathan Bailey.

Regards,
Esther

Dear Colleagues.

This email is to let you know a little about the Keynote speakers at the VITTA Annual Conference<http://www.vitta.org.au/conferenceinfo/vitta-annual-conference-2011> at Caulfield Racecourse on 29 - 30 August 2011.

Roger Larson is the founder of Fronter, and he has an enormous amount of experience in education and in particular in working with schools that are embedding technology everywhere as a natural part of everyday teaching and learning. His ideas and technologies have been adopted in a huge number of schools across Europe. In the last few years he has been involved in Pearson Education, providing resources for K12 education.

Mark Pesce is well known to many of us through his television appearances.  His ideas about Hyperconnected education involve the massive breaches in the walls of the classroom and the resultant  connections with the world outside. With his background as an inventor of VRML, his involvement in Film and Television schools, and so on  he has much to say to stimulate us about the changes that we are witnessing and the things we can look forward to in education.

Nathan Bailey has a strong history in developing and using technologies to transform education by providing innovative learning programs, allow new opportunities and respond to student needs. He will be able to share his experience and show us the way our students are using communication technologies in their university years.

Suelette Dreyfus has a long history of studying whistle-blowers and the media, and enhancing language education.  She has an enormous amount of experience as a reporter, an author and an academic.  Her involvement with WikiLeaks is certainly topical there have been huge downloads of her ebook Underground.  Her insider view of current and past events will be illuminating for us all.

The venue is really easy to find your way around to the numerous workshops and events and to the Exhibitors area.  Nothing is very far from anything else.
Parking is easy, with a large area set aside for Conference participants.

Catching up with colleagues from other schools is such an important part of any conference and is something we all look forward to with relish.

See you at the Conference on Monday 29th and Tuesday 30th August!
