I just attended the CAIS National Conference and two big subjects that came up in our discutions. The first was blended learning with mainly a keynote by Heather Staker that went over a bunch of different blended learning styles and techniques such as Flipped Classroom, Khan Academy, etc.... As well as a talk by Dr. Ruben Pientedura creator of the SAMR model, a technology integration technique http://www.hippasus.com/rrpweblog/archives/2014/06/29/LearningTechnologySAMRModel.pdf which demonstrates the 4 levels of integration. The second big subject was Learning Environments here is a video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kt4NjXDuv0U&feature=youtu.be from UCC that gave testimonials to the impact these environments have on teachers and students. We also looked at Vittra School from Sweden, http://www.rosanbosch.com/en/project/vittra-school-telefonplan.
