New Date! New Place!

Creative Technology in Challenging Times
Computers in Education Society of Ireland (CESI)
National Conference 2010
Portlaoise Heritage Hotel, 5 Feb PM
Portlaoise Community College, 6 Feb 

 
The Computers in Education Society of Ireland (CESI) National Conference will be held Friday and Saturday, 5 & 6 February 2010. The change in date, one week earlier than previously announced, presents the exciting opportunity of holding the conference at Portlaoise Community College and the nearby Portlaoise Heritage Hotel. This change in location marks the first time in many years that the conference will be held outside of Dublin.
 
Similar to the 2009 conference programme, the conference weekend will consist of two events – a Friday evening CESI Meet (Portlaoise Heritage Hotel) and a Saturday full day conference programme (Portloaise Community College). For those new to CESI, a CESI Meet is a semi-formal evening of sharing information, ideas and projects with colleagues. The Saturday programme will consist of as many as 30 presentations/workshops aimed at highlighting good practice in ICT usage from primary, post-primary and third level teaching settings. Joe Dale, leading practicioner in the area of ICT and modern foreign languages, will be presenting on the Saturday. Joe's blog,www.joedale.typepad.com, has been nominated for two Edublog Awards in the last there years.
