Program Schedule
The Google Educator Conference will focus on the interests of Primary school teachers on the first day (July 9th) and the interests of Secondary teachers on the second day (July 10th). However, we encourage teachers to attend on both days, as many of the presentations and materials will be useful for all participants.
The conference aims for minimal presentation format and maximum hands-on activities to allow participants to manipulate the materials themselves and put together their own teaching plans.
All events will take place in the EZONE, (Fairway Entrance 2), at The University of Western Australia. Directions to the venue is available from here.
