TLI 2012 Teaching in the 21st Century

I am spending the week with a great group of teachers from my school and its peer schools. The title of the session is Teaching in the 21st century. I have been asked to blog about what I hope to get out of this week. It is interesting because my main concerns for teaching next year are to create course materials for an AP statistics course and to prepare to teach AP Computer Science for the first time. This week may not be the most efficient use of my time, but I am having a lot of fun exploring lots of new tools that are interesting to explore and play with. What I would like to get out the week are the primarily the personal connections with a group of educators that are looking to learn more about tools for todays learners. I am hoping to get some collaborators that critically analyze the way they teach, and are willing to comment and give feedback to me about my own teaching.
