The Big #heweb16 Recap
I didn’t make it to the HighEdWeb Conference this year, but I did follow the #heweb16 backchannel on Twitter & read the posts about the conference sessions published by the excellent team of bloggers from LINK, the journal of the HighEdWeb Association.
So, I’ve compiled this big list of the slides I was able to find so far as well as the posts from LINK and notes from conference attendees.
I will update this page as more slides are published, so please if you presented and posted your slides on Slideshare or any other slides web service, leave the link in the comment so I can update this post.
