Have you been to the K-12 Online Conference?
And oh yes! The SEEDlings team is part of Transforming Education. It was such an honor to help David.
Science Literacy Maine UnConference
Saturday, I attended an unconference at the Gulf of Maine Research Center in Portland, Maine. One of the organizers, Justine (we met at EdCamp Keene and EdCamp Boston) wanted to try arranging an unconference based on a topic to see who might attend. She capped participants at 50. The topic was Science Literacy.
And what a terrific day of the "meeting of the minds". I enjoyed meeting everyone and was so impressed by the diversity and knowledge of the group. It's wonderful to know that such a pool of talent exists locally. The food was yummy and the spaces were perfect for sharing. Thank you Justine and Gayle for organizing the day. It was a great success. I hope we can do it again.
Resources are posted here.

Over the past months, we have made significant progress in conceptualizing and prototyping the program. It consists of three tiers of involvement:
