We are pleased to inform you new this year, we will be introducing a technology supported area called the “BuzzHub” at the NCTM 2012 Annual Meeting […] in Philadelphia. This is in addition to offering speakers the most current A/V choices at no charge for their presentations. Also complementary wireless access will be provided in the concourses and Overlook Area in the Pennsylvania Convention Center. Some of the “BuzzHub” offerings include:
- “Member Showcase” providing technology support to update your membership information and more.
- “Social Networking Lounge" is an area for attendees to sit, relax, access WiFi (paid for by NCTM), charge their devices (through electrical outlets), mingle and network with other attendees and stay connected with the latest NCTM social media. This large lounge will also feature live Twitter and Facebook feeds will be displayed on monitors.
- “Internet Station” computers provided for attendees to check email or access the line conference planner.
- “NCTM Presentation Spotlight Stage” is a place for attendees to stop by and listen to short sessions and to include NCTM journal editors discussing how to write an article NCTM journals and become a reviewer, technology supported short sessions on Coretools research, Online resources and Illuminations and many other exciting sessions.
We are excited to showcase this new area and enhancing NCTM and the technology experience for all. Thank you for submitting the proposed resolution. [See entire letter - PDF.]
