The first Irish Teaching and Learning Festival will take place in The Citywest Conference Centre, Dublin, on 15-16 of October.

The festival, sponsored by Promethean is an interactive conference and exhibition focused on the future of education in Ireland.

The event will feature over 50 exhibitors, offering original ideas on learning and teaching across a range of areas, including educational software and multimedia, educational publishing, network and communications, IT training, audio visual and ICT equipment, computer hardware and more.

The conference and exhibition are free to all who register to attend and delegates will have the unrivalled opportunity of accessing the latest in educational developments and ideas.

Among other activities, delegates can attend seminars to gain practical advice and ideas on using technology in the classroom, find out how to create lesson plans using online content and discover what technology schools of the future may look like. There will also be the chance to get hands on experience of new educational tools, exchange information and ideas with colleagues and investigate what other schools in Ireland are doing to enhance teaching and learning in the classroom.

Graham Byrne, head of Ireland and Scotland at Promethean, said, “We see the Irish Teaching and Learning Festival as an opportunity to showcase our latest ActivClassroom technologies, software and support that educators need to transform their classrooms into dynamic, engaging and thriving learning environments where all students can explore their academic potential. We look forward to meeting practitioners and helping them harness technology with hands on demonstrations and examples of educational best practice from Ireland and worldwide.”
