Virtual MACUL: Lightning Talks

This year MACUL and especially board member Ron Houtman came up with a whole new type of presentation format...the lightning talk. Each speaker submits 20 slides that auto-advance every 15 seconds whether the presenter is ready or not.

Here is this year's set of talks featuring a handful of really great teachers from around Michigan. I say that very humbly because after Gary Abud's delivery from the leadoff spot, you will see the bar had been set quite high for me to follow next.

The thing I think I liked most about this format is that the audience gets to hear a wide variety of presentators that are forced to stay on point. There is also a very intriguing human, live drama, potential-train-wreck-coming feel to it that makes the adrenaline flow...both while on stage and off.

This year's lineup:

Gary Abud - @mr_abud
Andy Losik (me) - @mrlosik
Steve Kelly - @BigKXcountry
Brad Wilson - @dreambition
Andrew Van Heuvel -@avheuv
Ben Rimes - @techsavvyed
David Theune - @DavidTheune
