I love the above picture of Jason.  This photo says it all.  Jason gave a great presentation.  Every new tool, gadget and time saver brings increasingly complex work and learning environments.  As it overwhelms tech-savvy teachers and students, new approaches must be adopted to deal with the brave new information world.  This session discussed workflow, the basics of making the tools work for you.
