A rendezvous is an appointment at a specified time and place. In the old American West, a rendezvous was a time when trappers, Native Americans, and traders would come together for a few days annually to exchange goods and services. It was a time when ideas were shared, when new relationships were formed and old ones renewed. The 2009 ISTE conference is an opportunity for professionals from around the world, interested in the betterment and enhancement of teacher education, to come together to share and exchange ideas on how teacher education is facing challenges in the 21st century.
