‘Education on Air’ was the free online conference organised by Google for Education earlier this month (8-9 May 2015). The idea was to find out how to help students become digital leaders and, according to a blog post (dated 18 May 2015) by Tia Lendo, Head of North America Marketing, Google for Education, something like 53,000 people registered for the online conference.
The blog post states: “Educators, parents, students, business people and citizens from 201 countries showed their passion for improving education. The posts on Google+ and the comments on Twitter showed that the messages of the speakers really hit home.”
