2012 Teacher Conference June 14 - June 15
"I learnt more and connected with more interesting people than on any course that my school has previously forked out hundreds of pounds for"
(Feedback from previous CAS Teacher Conference)
The VENUE
University of Birmingham
The DATES
Thursday 14th June 7pm-10pm Informal Reception and "Bring and Brag" presentations
Friday 15th June 9:00-5:00pm Conference
What to EXPECT
"Computing: Probably the most exciting technology in the world!"
- Looking for inspiration to breathe more life into your lessons?
- Are you frustrated by current opportunities for teaching Computing within ICT?
- Do you struggle to find dynamic resources to engage your pupils?
- Do you wish to enhance your own skills to keep pace with your students who seem to 'know it all already'?
Then join us, for a unique opportunity to hear from practising teachers and educators about developing computing in our schools. One of the highlights will be the poster exhibition where teachers will share how they are introducing computing into their classrooms.
Come and share your ideas and experience!
Local ARRANGEMENTS
Local information, i.e. hotels, travel etc.
What DOES IT COST?
The conference is free!
It is expected that your employer will cover travel and/or accommodation expenses especially as we are making no charge for the conference itself. However, if they are unwilling to do so you may apply for a bursary (generously provided by BCS, The Chartered Institute for IT and Microsoft Research). If you wish to apply for one of these bursaries please send a covering letter detailing anticipated costs on school headed paper (no email please) to Computing at School, 29 Wort's Causeway, Cambridge, CB1 8RJ to arrive no later then 4th May 2012.
Any QUESTIONS?
