If you or your organisation has good practice to share in the inclusive
use of technology to support learning, we invite you to submit a
proposal to run a 45 minute workshop at the conference.
To submit a proposal, please complete the proposal form by 12.00 noon on
Monday 4 December 2009: http://tinyurl.com/yjog4pb. We will let
proposers know the result of the selection process before Christmas, to
give those invited to run workshops plenty of time to prepare.
We will meet reasonable travel and subsistence costs for those selected
to present; in each case for up to two people involved in the
presentation. We will meet the costs of overnight accommodation for one
presenter if staying overnight at the National College; the second
presenter attending would be at cost.
Depending on the nature of proposals received we may require presenters
to run their workshop twice during the day.
If you are not presenting but would like to attend, please note that
further information about the conference will be distributed widely
later in November.
