CU
E 2017-The CUE Conference is the largest and oldest (over 35 years) education technology conference in California and among the largest in the United States.
Educators, technology coordinators, TOSAs, administrators and those who are looking to see how technology can support student achievement. Many sessions and exhibits will be of special value to those involved in Title I, School Improvement Program, Data and Assessment, Future Ready, English Language Development (ELD), Special Needs, and GATE. Thousands of teachers, administrators, students and parents, and other professionals will attend the four-day conference
Tech Terra Education-We were first-timers for CUE 2017 and didn’t know what to expect. We’d heard that CUE attendees were super interested in learning and in finding new tools for their schools and districts. Arriving late Sunday afternoon we began setting up at the Palm Springs Convention Center. And what a beautiful convention center it is surrounded by majestic mountains, glass is everywhere to let natural light in (Photo attached) The setting itself would be a good reason to attend CUE, the setting combined with informed educators and many expo options promised a full house over the days ahead.
CUE 217 Conference lived up to its promise of involved and excited educators across levels. We started off with a crowd and didn’t slow down until almost noon two days later. Many attendees came to the TechTerra Education booth attracted by the full table of learning tools to explore. Others came to finally be hands-on with a tool they’d only read about or seen online. 
Bluebee Pals were one of these educational tools. Our booth was packed and there was a great deal of interest. Educators across levels came to hold and explore the Bluebee Pals for classes ranging from K/1st grade to therapists and special needs instructors all the way up to high school Spanish teachers hoping to have Bluebee Pals to increase student engagement. We ran out of Bluebee brochures halfway through day two. We encouraged attendees to photograph the Bluebee box so they could remember after the conference.So many people were interested and really delighted to see Bluebee in action. We’re exhausted but delighted to have the opportunity to share hands-on learning tools.
