Whether attending sessions hosted by teachers and administrators, taking selfies with Model Schools Conference gear, or networking with K-12 educators from across the U.S., eager learners and curious minds defined MSC 2018.
With 100+ sessions, 20+ speakers, and 5,000+ educators, it was a tough feat to catch everything going on at MSC. Luckily, we had our ears to the ground and our eyes on Twitter for the highlights.
Here's a recap of what HMH and attendees tweeted during MSC.

"For every choice I make for kids, I give them two choices back. i.e, 'Yes, you have to write right now. But what you write about and what you write with is up to you.'" @MrazKristine #msc2018

"Devices need to support learning, not drive instruction." You can't hand a student a device and just expect learning miracles to happen. –@E_Sheninger #MSC2018
