Clayton R. Wright writes, "The 47th Professional Development Opportunities list comprises 2,158 in-person and online selected events focused on educational technology and education. While compiling this list, I sometimes found myself in a world described by George Orwell in his book Nineteen Eighty-Four. An event date would be moved by one or two days and sometimes weeks or months, but no mention is made that the date of the event was moved in time and/or location or format. It was as if the new or revised dates, location, or format were the original dates, location, and/or format (in-person, virtual/online, or hybrid). These changes can play havoc with your travel arrangements and meeting schedules. Thus, carefully re-check the dates, time, and location of any event that you plan to attend or set out time to participate in. Note that the COVID-19 pandemic has encouraged many organizations to embrace online learning so that 65% of the list comprise online events as opposed to face-to-face conference events. Times are a changin' - it is easier than ever to participate in events that occur beyond your borders, near or far!"
