The MACE organization is committed to providing educators with the opportunity to share innovations, philosophies, best teaching practices, and technology designed to improve teaching and learning with respect to educational technology.

Our conference promotes teacher-leaders as presenters who serve as models and advocates for effective technology integration. Presenting at MACE allows you to develop leadership skills and share your craft. Conference sessions should be designed to reflect current research and the integration initiatives of state and national curriculum standards.

Educators that are incorporating technology into their classrooms and curriculum are encouraged to help spread the word about best practices. MACE promotes and encourages appropriate use of both hardware and software for the improvement of education.

Sessions will be placed in one of three categories: Talk, Demonstration, or Roundtable Discussion.

You may be asked to repeat your session if it is a popular topic.

Presenter sessions are not to be used as a forum for selling a product or service, this is the domain of Vendor sessions and the Vendor Courtyard.

KSU Alumni Center & Student Union have wireless Internet access. You can connect to the KSU Guest wireless network.

If you require a "wired" connection please indicate that on the registration form. Every effort will be made to accommodate a "wired" connection request at the presenter table, but this cannot be guaranteed.

Be sure to visit with your district IT staff to be sure your device will operate properly with the KSU network. Make sure you know how to make the connection or have IT set your device up ahead of time.
