KEYNOTE — LEVAR BURTON
Digital Storytelling & Real World Connections
Inspire Lifelong Learners
As steward of the beloved Reading Rainbow brand, and
an educational advocate, for over 30 years LeVar has been
encouraging generations of children to read. Here he discusses
how mobile devices and digital media enables all types of
readers to connect with literature in ways never before possible.
The opportunities for children to discover and interact with
stories that interest them, and extend the learning to relevant
topics in the classroom is exciting. Join LeVar as he talks about
his true passion, inspiring today’s digital generation of readers.
LeVar Burton has been capturing the admiring attention of both
audiences and his industry peers for three decades and continues
to enjoy longevity truly rare within the industry. Launching his
acting career in the groundbreaking role of Kunta Kinte in the
landmark television series ROOTS, Burton found himself on
the cover of Time Magazine at the age of 19. Shortly thereafter,
Burton achieved further global acclaim as Chief Engineer Geordi
LaForge in Star Trek: The Next Generation TV series and feature
films. From 1983 until 2009, Burton was the host and producer
of the beloved Peabody Award winning PBS children’s series,
Reading Rainbow. The honored recipient of 12 Emmy Awards, a
Grammy and 5 NAACP awards, LeVar has demonstrated in his
career that he can do it all, whether acting, directing, producing
or writing. No greater proof of his enduring
appeal and deep personal connection with his
audience is the fact that LeVar is one of the
most followed people in the world on Twitter,
with over 1.8M followers.

KEYNOTE — DAN MEYER
Capturing, Sharing, and Resolving Perplexity
Given the infinite buffet table of tools and technology to try out in the
classroom, how do you decide what’s worth your and your students’ time?
Palm Springs Without some kind of criteria guiding our selection, we’ll spend years
Convention Center building up a dusty closet of tools that looked good, promised a lot, and
didn’t deliver. With that in mind, the presenter will describe “perplexity,”
one of the scarcest resources in the classroom, and how to pick tools and technology to maximize it.
Dan Meyer taught high school math to students who, in many cases, did not like high school math.
He is currently a doctoral candidate at Stanford University in the field of math education. He speaks
internationally and works with publishers to help them transition from print to digital media. He was
named one of Tech & Learning’s 30 Leaders of the Future and an Apple Distinguished Educator. He
lives in Mountain View, CA.

KEYNOTE — SAL KAHN
One Room Schoolhouse:
OASIS 4 Education Reimagined
(NEW LOCATION)
With over 5,100 instructional videos, 100,000+
problems, and 10 million unique users per
month, Khan Academy is rethinking the world
of education. Founder Salman Khan provides
insight into the history and the evolution of Khan Academy and how we can
rethink education.
Palm Springs
Convention Center
Sal Khan is the founder of the Khan Academy, a nonprofit with the mission of providing free, high-quality education to “anyone, anywhere” in
the world. A former hedge fund analyst with degrees from MIT and Harvard, Khan is also the author of The One World School House, which
explores the potential impact of the web as a teaching tool. It may be one of the most influential books about education in our time.
Khan’s journey began when he was helping a young cousin with math in 2004, communicating by phone and using an interactive
notepad. When others expressed interest, he began posting videos of his hand-scribbled tutorials on YouTube. Demand took off, and in 2009
he quit his day job. The Khan Academy website now provides self-pacing software and unlimited access to over 5,100 instructional videos on
its YouTube channel covering everything from basic arithmetic to college level science and economics. It’s the most-used library of educational
videos on the web, with 10 million unique students per month, over 300 million lessons delivered amd over 1.4 billion problems completed
(~4 Million per day).
Khan’s first book, The One World Schoolhouse: Education Reimagined, was published to great acclaim in 2012. Innovators as varied as
George Lucas and Nobel Peace Prize Laureate Muhammed Yunus have hailed it as “a must-read.” Al Gore had this to say: “Since its founding in
2006, Sal Khan’s project -- the Khan academy -- has revolutionized our thinking on the potential and promise of unfettered, open-access online
education. In his new book The One World Schoolhouse, Khan presents his vision and blueprint for how online technology can, and should, play
an integral role in educating communities across the globe, closing the opportunity gap and providing high-quality education for all.”
A growing number of classrooms around the world are using Khan Academy to help build student mastery of topics and to free up
class time for dynamic project based learning.

Curves are For Breaking: The End of a 30-Year Challenge

Thirty years ago researchers with Benjamin Bloom laid down a
challenge-and the path for serving students better- raising student
achievement by two quartiles. The average student would move to
the 98th percentile. We now have the tools to meet that challenge.
When educational strategies match the resources, the whole
game changes. From “Mystery Skypes” and media to connected
education, student peer groups, resources, professional growth.
Teaching and learning greatly and measurably improve when
strategies, resources, and digital tools play well together. Finally, it

Leadership 3.0 is the place to connect with nearly 300 educational leaders seeking new
technology solutions to improve teaching and learning. The event is a collaborative effort of
the Association of California School Administrators (ACSA), Computer-Using Educators, Inc.
(CUE), and Technology Information Center for Administrative Leadership (TICAL). It is truly
“for administrators, by administrators.” The two-and-a-half day symposium features keynote
presentations, concurrent sessions, and several pre-conference workshops and seminars.
Three organizations, one mission – Educational Leadership for the 21st Century.
One attendee described it as:
“…a visionary conference for administrators that
supports and celebrates our journey into the future
as we seek to educate students for their future.”
