Microsoft U.S. Innovative Education Forum - Apply To Be Recognized For Your Work

The Innovative Education Forum (IEF) is part of a worldwide program
from Microsoft Partners in Learning. The program recognizes
innovative educators and schools implementing 21-century skills in
the classroom and the school community with the goal of improving
teaching and learning. The Innovative Education Forum seeks to
showcase creative and inspiring examples of how educators and schools
are using technology.

The U.S. Innovative Education Forum will be hosted on the Microsoft
campus in Redmond, WA July 28-29. The theme this year is Engaging
students.

Inspiring creativity. Preparing for the future. It focuses on how
educators and schools engage students to solve difficult problems
while inspiring creativity and, ultimately, preparing students for
the future.

We would like to encourage educators to submit class projects as
individuals or in collaboration with a colleague. School leaders are
also encouraged to submit projects that highlight how technology is
being used in innovative ways throughout the school community.

For more details on the event, to download the application and watch

We look forward to seeing you there!
