“Education Innovation Conference & Exhibition, undoubtedly the best edu show Manchester has held yet” Miss W. (Visitor)


F27–28EBRUARY MANCHESTER CENTRAL Innovation, innovation, innovation


Building on a successful launch event back in March, the Education Innovation Conference & Exhibition will take place for the second time at Manchester Central in February


E


ducation professionals are under an enormous amount of pressure at the best of times and the most important things are that students can achieve, with teachers continuing to adapt and improve the ways that they work.


Technology can help with this or it can be a white elephant


that gets in the way of effective teaching and learning. There is no point investing in expensive equipment if it is not going to enhance education or make the running of educational institutions more productive and efficient. The theme of EICE is ‘Achievement through Innovation’. It is


achievement that is critical and the event is designed to offer visitors crucial advice, tips and ideas that will enable them to make the most out of existing innovation, as well as lead, teach and procure more innovatively. The free event offers education leaders, business managers and


practitioners advice, training and guidance when it comes to integrating innovation and technology into learning. This will come in the form of CPD training, access to inspirational keynote speakers, practical workshops, and an exhibition of over 100 solution providers.


At a time of great change, Education Innovation will offer free advice sessions on: ✥ Improving your OFSTED performance. ✥ Guidance on implementing the new curriculum. ✥ E-safety and dealing with cyberbullying for all ages. ✥ Technology helping adult learning and training. ✥ Mobile learning, tablets and BYOD. ✥ More effective use of MIS / cloud computing / data management. ✥ More effective and efficient procurement of technology. ✥ Change management and CPD training teaching computing. ✥ Technology supporting dyslexia and autism. ✥ Technology to help governance.


New features for 2014 will include a dedicated ‘innovation in practice’ centre where teachers, educators, business managers and network managers will showcase the latest ideas and demonstrate how they are put to practical use to raise achievement. It will also include a new EdTech Pavillion where entrepreneurial start up edtech companies will have a chance to meet education professionals and refine their offerings to suit the needs of education. Around 96% of the visitors to the 2013 event said that the


conference was “excellent” or “good” and the confirmed speakers for the next show include the head of ICT inspection at OFSTED, David Brown, Tim Rylands, Toby Young, Russell Prue, Lynne Sedgemore, plus contributions from Government ministers, DfE, EFA, BBC Learning, Jisc, NTAB and much more. The event will include advice hubs from Eskills, Computing at


School, AMiE, EduGeek and Naace. We know that time and resource are incredibly valuable for


education professionals, but we have jam packed this event with free support, advice, training and ideas that will guarantee that a visit is more than worthwhile, whatever your role within education technology. ET
