The Coalition of Lighthouse Schools

La Jolla, California was the place to be this past July for the fourth annual iSummit conference of the Coalition of Lighthouse Schools. Educators from across the country (and globe!) came together for a four-day immersion into all things One-To-One. The energy and innovation that came from the presenters was truly an inspiration.

In the true spirit of nostalgia, below is some of the information we posted leading up to last years iSummit:

Following the success of the third annual iSummit in Memphis, Tennessee, The Gillispie School is set to host the fourth annual iSummit on July 9–12, in beautiful La Jolla, California. Plan for wonderful weather, inspiring presentations and the chance to be a part of something truly “Ahead of the Wave.”

The list of iSummit 2006 attendees is now up. Have a look.

iSummit

iSummit is the fourth annual conference of the Coalition of Lighthouse Schools. Our conference focuses on three critical teams: Leadership, Learning, and Infrastructure. Tracks are provided for each of these groups to share knowledge and discuss common opportunities and challenges as related to 1 to 1 learning. Many schools engaged in 1 to 1 computing report that many conferences lose their relevance because there are few sessions dedicated to 1 to 1 computing. iSummit is all about 1 to 1 computing for independent schools.

If your school would like to take a more active role in The Coalition of Lighthouse Schools, visit: the mebership page for more information.

Oh yes, bring a digital camera and/or a DV camera, you’ll need it. And dress casual. This is Southern California!

We are looking forward to seeing you all in Atlanta this year!
