The Ditch that Textbook Digital Summit provides educators with hours of amazing Netflix style professional development. In our weekly #Ditchbook Twitter chat participants shared their thoughts on some of the most popular past Ditch Summit presentations.

Three years. 35 incredible videos. Thousands of participants. The topics covered in the Ditch That Textbook Digital Summit — a free online conference for teachers — have resonated with educators all over the world.

With so many presentations to choose from, there is bound to be something for everyone.

In our weekly #Ditchbook Twitter chat, we discussed four of the most popular past Ditch Summit presentations that sparked powerful conversations.

Educators shared their thoughts about:

• creating experiences for students
• powerful, pedagogically packed teaching
• the science of happiness
• and amplifying learning with technology
