National Dropout Prevention Conference, Oct. 10-12, 2011
More than 700 people from around the US gathered in Illinois to discuss ways to reduce the staggering number of young people who drop out of US public schools every year.
I created
this concept map to show the people I met while attending this week's National Dropout Prevention Conference. Included in the map is a link to the workshop that I presented on Monday, Oct. 10 and links to other resources on drop-out issues, poverty, mentoring and public education that I've been aggregating in the Tutor/Mentor Institute Library.
If you attended the conference in Illinois or are part of drop out prevention efforts elsewhere you can add a node to this discussion showing who you are, where you are, and linking to information and ideas that you host on your own web site and/or blog.
