SXSWedu Spotlight Sessions
The inaugural SXSWedu conference, held March 8-10, 2011, offered dozens of presentation and panel sessions featuring opportunities for teachers, administrators, and other education professionals to collaborate and to learn more about state-of-the-art content delivery and best practices.

Each day during the conference, a Spotlight Session presented the latest information about innovative efforts to bring digital learning resources to Texas educators and students. Find video of the three Spotlight Sessions here.
