Call for Presentations:
The National and Mid-Pacific ICT Centers are very interested in current ICT educational practices, within the MPICT region, and across the country. This call for presentations and demonstrations is an effort to showcase quality practices, innovation and exemplary work in ICT education, as well as new and emerging technologies. This solicitation seeks to bring together the best and brightest ICT educators from around the country to share their educational and technical expertise with like-minded educators and professionals.

We encourage presentation/demonstration submissions from all facets of ICT, computer science, telecommunications, networking, Internet, database, forensics... We're interested in applications of ICT, hands-on labs, pedagogy, articulation and transfer, evolving technologies, distance learning, classroom tactics, recruitment and retention... All ideas are welcome! Please share your ICT educational expertise with peers from around the country.

Proposed presentations should be one or two 45-minute segments and include required laboratory, classroom space and audio/visual support. Presentations may be informational/lecture-based, however, we encourage interactive, hands-on or lab elements.

Please submit your presentation proposal here by November 14, 2008. Presenters selected will be notified by November 28, 2008. If you have any questions, please contact NCICT via email or call (413) 755-6550 or contact MPICT via email or call (415) 239-3600.
