Disculpas
Cambio de Colores 2009
I’m sorry for the dearth of blog posts last week. I was on an extended absence to attend the Cambio de Colores conference in St. Louis, Missouri, mentioned in this post. Incidentally, I did buy that suit, but not until the day before the conference. Colores was my first conference that I participated in, so I don’t have much for reference. It seemed like a rather small conference, but that’s probably to be expected since it was more regional. The vast majority of the participants were from Missouri, though there were a few people from states like Nebraska, Michigan, Illinois and Iowa. Most people were from the education and non-profit sectors with a few university professors and VERY few grad students mixed in. My presentation of our Everett Family Literacy Program with Dr. Boren went well, though 10 minutes goes really fast. It’s odd to think I spent more time waiting for the train at the airport than presenting at the conference. Oh well. Now St. Louis knows El Centro.
UPDATE: Our abstract and paper are already up on the conference website, if you’re interested.
