Important information:
Sessions will be 1 hr. and 45 minutes in length.
At the start of the conference presenters will participate in a  
carousel exhibition where each presenter will have table space for a  
display that represents the content of their sessions.  Conference  
participants will have the chance to view all presenters' work so  
they can have a glimpse of what each session will offer.
The major focus is on 7-12 educators but all are welcome.
Participants are required to have a Mac laptop (preferably with  
either the middle school or high school MLTI image or similar software).
The planning committee encourages you to seek out a colleague you’ve  
been thinking about developing curriculum ideas with and make it  
happen to share your creative work with at this conference!
