I won't say much as I'm sure you must have read plenty about RSCON, the Reform Symposium. Instead, I'll place some useful links here because I know how, sometimes, it's difficult to find what you're looking for. If you are still in doubt regarding any aspect of this incredible e-conference, just get in touch with me.
Twitter Lists
Apart from following the hashtag #RSCON4, you may like to follow the people who are making it all possible. Subscribing to the lists is best because names may be added from time to time.
Spread the Word
Write about it in your blog. Wear a badge. Tweet it. Tell everyone in the social media scene.
Attendee badge - click here for instructions on how to embed it on your blog.
If you've written a blog post, have it included here: http://goo.gl/KvplSP
If you're a presenter or an EdInspire nominee, you should have got a personal message about where to get the badge. Otherwise, get in touch with me.
If you know someone who deserves to be nominated for the EdInspire award, here's the form.

Volunteers
Join up as a volunteer. Help us moderate. To make sure everything runs as smoothly as possible, we need more MODERATORS from all the time zones! Go here for more details: http://www.futureofeducation.com/page/call-for-rscon4-volunteer-moderators
Remember that even though you're a presenter, you can still moderate the other sessions!
Practice:
You can practise by signing up for a free WeCollaborate room: http://try.bbcollaborate.com/trial/register.go
Training sessions
The 2 official training sessions are over, but you can watch the recordings.
There are two - they are similar. The links are given at the end of this post.
When you click on either link, you'll be asked to save a file called nativeplayback.jnlp
Save it where you can find it easily, on your desktop, for example.
When it's finished saving, open it.
This will start the recording. It may take a few minutes to load.
Click on play to begin the playback.
The whole recording lasts for 76 minutes although you can fast forward or rewind it.

If you're still unsure about participating in webinars and need extra training, feel free to contact me for a private session.
Bookmark this page. If there's anything else that I think may be useful, I'll come back here and edit.
I look forward to meeting you all in a week's time!
