Loosely modeled around the format of a science fair, Slade Technology
Fayre is an informal non-hierarchical event, which seeks to gather
skills and experience into the school and escalate the conversation
surrounding work that makes use of technology.
At the Fayre all participants are both teachers and learners. For people
used to presenting work in a critical context this is an opportunity to
take a step back and share information about the often-invisible
activities happening in the computer. For those less engaged with a
critical sphere, the Fayre is an opportunity to get involved in a
discussion about how the work is operating critically as well as
technically
