The Tech Fair plans begin in June with the designation of date and location. Then vendors are contacted so that they may reserve that day for our county. Applications for presentations are distributed. Finally, the technical aspects of the fair must also be considered. Most booths, roundtable discussions and formal presentations require technology and data lines at the site.
Communication is the key.
It is imperative to get the word out and make contacts to get people involved. Tech Fair has a variety of topics and presentations for all grades and content areas. The major concern is getting teachers involved who are at the Pinnacle Layer and who are doing a great job integrating technology. Finally convinced that they are doing a wonderful job, the teachers who present will in turn come back to share again and again. Building the confidence of the teachers who present at Tech Fair provides continued growth for them and other teachers.
