240127 ISTE24 등록 후 바로 포기 Give up immediately after ISTE24 registration

2024. 1. 27. 


ISTE 2024에 등록 한 후 바로 포기했다. 


올해 특별 연수 기간 연가가 4일만 허락되어 그 기간 동안 미국 그것도 중부 덴버까지 오고 가기가 쉽지 않기 때문이었다. 


무엇보다 등록비가 생각보다 비쌌다. 


bett 2020의 열정은 어디로 간 듯 하다. 





등록 후 바로 포기한 영상 


그리고 지진한 카드 승인 취소에 대한 문의가 시작되었다.

일련의 과정을 거치면서 한국이 참 빠른 나라구나 라고 생각했다. 


ISTE를 가기 위해서 어느 대학 겸임 교수까지 했었는데, 


실상 갈 기회가 주어지니 가기가 쉽지 않아 안타까웠다. 


선택을 할 때는 더욱 신중해야 겠다는 배움을 얻었다.
