Not everyone can make it to Chicago this weekend -- but you can still be part of the action via the Livestream that will broadcast on as many as three channels. All the keynotes and many of the workshops will be available live, starting Saturday at 8:30 am central time at www.schoolhouselive.org
Please tweet with the hashtag #NPEChicago and help us trend #1 again like we did twice last year.
