Leaders in education technology from a number of U.S. States met at the California Education Technology Professionals Association (CETPA) annual conference in Sacramento, California last week to to learn about the latest tools and strategies for infusing technology into the classroom. With over 900 decision makers in attendance, the event was one of the largest CETPA has ever put on.

I was lucky enough to be able to speak on Friday, and one of my sessions was the "Ultimate ubermix Panel 2.0", which brought together an illustrious team of ubermix leaders to discuss their ubermix-based learning initiatives, including (from left to right):

• Brad Grumbles, Coordinator of Curriculum, Assessment, and Instructional Technology, Panama-Buena Vista Union School District
• Dr. Mike Vollmert, Director of Technology, Rio School District
• Andrew Schwab, Chief Technology Officer, Union School District
• Larry Rego, Director of Information Technology, Hillmar Unified School District
• Jim Klein (me), Chief Technology Officer, Las Virgenes Unified School District
