New! Final Room Assignments

All sessions and workshops will take place at the Pennsylvania Convention Center (PACC). Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu to find out where you will be presenting, and to view detailed room diagrams and equipment setup information.

New! Exhibitor Connection Tool

New this year, we have expanded our online program and exhibitor searches to enable presenters and exhibitors to create pathways between their content and products and services. Presenters can now connect their session descriptions with up to 10 exhibitor descriptions on the ISTE 2011 website. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu to create your own connections and confirm connection requests from exhibitors.

Workshop Final Enrollment Status

ISTE has completed its final analysis of workshop enrollments. All workshop presenters must acknowledge receipt of your final workshop enrollment notice via your presenter menu on or before May 8. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu to see if you made the final cut.

Upload Handouts, Research Papers, and Photos

Presenters may now upload handouts, research papers, and photos to be displayed on their Session Detail pages via their presenter menus. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu.

Handouts and photos may be uploaded before, during, and after the conference through July 8. Handouts may be uploaded as URLs or files. Accepted handout file formats include PDF, PowerPoint, and plain text (.pdf, .ppt, .txt). Accepted photo formats include JPEG (prefered), TIFF, PNG, and Bitmap (.jpg .tiff, .png, .bmp). Maximum file size for handouts and photos is 5MB.

All research papers must be uploaded by June 24; however, papers on the subject of teacher education submitted by May 20 will be considered for the 2011 SIGTE Research Paper Award of Excellence. Be sure to read the Important Information for Research Papers for instructions on formatting and submitting your paper.

Create a Ning Discussion for Your Session

The ISTE 2011 Ning is a social network expressly designed to enable presenters and attendees to connect, document, and share their conference experiences; discuss and review conference sessions; and start or contribute to a forum or group. We encourage all presenters to first create a forum discussion directly related to your session on the ISTE 2011 Ning and then use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu to upload the discussion URL to the program database so it will be displayed on your Session Detail listing.

IVC Presenter Questionnaire

IVC presenters (i.e. those who requested a room with videoconferencing capabilities) should now go online to complete your IVC Connectivity Questionnaire and provide the ISTE tech support team with your detailed connectivity requirements. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu, and complete your questionnaire by May 15.

ISTE 2011 Program Live!

The ISTE 2011 program database is now live and available to the public. Use the Custom Program Search to look up your session on the conference website to see how it is displaying. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu to edit your description or summary information if necessary.

Workshop and BYOL Session presenters may also now view current enrollment information and communicate with registered participants via your presenter menus. This will be especially useful in June as a way to remind participants about hardware/software prerequisites and/or disseminate other preparatory instruction.

Equipment Requests

Presenters may now view standard equipment sets and whiteboard request confirmations via their presenter menus. Model Lesson and Hands-on Workshop presenters may also request additional hardware/software at this time. The deadline for all equipment requests is February 18. Use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu.

Proposal Acceptance/Regret Status Now Available

The Proposal Review Committee has completed its review of all ISTE 2011 proposal submissions. Proposal accept/regret status is now accessible via your presenter menu. Those whose proposals have been accepted may also view the day/time you have been assigned to present via your presenter menu.

All main presenters must complete an online participation agreement form for each accepted proposal by January 7, 2011. Please use the Presenter Login to access your presenter menu and confirm your participation.

Main presenters, specifically, must hold a one-day, student, retired educator, exhibitor, or full conference registration by the end of the Early Bird registration period (May 1, 2011).
