Throwback Thursday to 2009…

Personal Reflection 1 Minute

https://www.c-span.org/video/standalone/?287436-1/telecommunications-technology

This is an old one, but a good one.  Check out this story that aired on C-Span from the 2009 Cable Trade Show.  I had a great time working with Discovery Education and Cable for the Classroom to demonstrate to Congressmen, FCC Chairmen, and a few very special guests (FLOTUS) how technology and high speed broadband internet can transform learning in the classroom.  Fast forward to the 12 minute mark to enjoy a 10 years younger, 15 pounds lighter, pre-beard Michael Hakkarinen talking about Google Earth, Promethean Boards, and Discovery Education video content on demand.
