Sunderland ICT Design Festival Future Learning Spaces

I am delighted to invite you to an exciting event we are hosting on Thursday 26 March 2009, in partnership with Sunderland City Council.

Taking place at the Marriott Hotel, the Sunderland ICT Design Festival will give you the opportunity to explore the very latest technology within education learning spaces, and experience what teaching and learning could be like in the future.

This unique experience is free-of-charge and everyone is welcome. Whether you’re a Head Teacher, Network Manager, Governor, Student or Parent involved in either primary or secondary education this event is open to you.

The learning spaces will be open between 12:00pm-6:00pm. So even if you only have 30 minutes to spare – pop in for a coffee and be prepared to see some really exciting technology: explore a 3D heart, make a robot break dance, leave your comments in the ‘diary room’ and even star in your own movie with the latest media tools!

I realise you will have other demands on your time, but I really do hope you will be able to make this fantastic event.
