MicroSociety Conference: Science, Engineering, and Entrepreneurship

Posted by on June 15, 2009

17th Annual MICROSOCIETY National Conference

MICROSOCIETY’s 17th Annual National Conference
Dates: June 28 – July 1, 2009
Location: Philadelphia, Moore College of Design
Theme: Science, Engineering, and Entrepreneurship
Registration fee: $425

MICROSOCIETY is committed to making this conference as affordable as possible. In light of the economic realities all of us face this year, we’ve decided to forego a pricier hotel location for great facilities at a leading design college – right across the street from the Franklin Institute. And we’re passing the savings onto you.

“An Investment In Knowledge Always Pays The Best Interest…” – Ben Franklin

WHO SHOULD ATTEND?
Day and Afterschool administrators, teachers, practitioners, parents, and community members who are interested in real world learning as a strategy to motivate children to learn and improve academic achievement. In addition to Microsociety practitioners from all levels of experience and the district administrators who support them, our conference offers a wide array of opportunities for all day and afterschool educational leaders who understand how real world connections impact the motivation to learn and seek strategies for district and building staff to implement.

WHY ATTEND?
To learn the benefits of real world learning and the latest cutting edge best practices. To recharge your batteries with renewed hope for children and for your own instructional practice. To have fun with like-minded professionals.

THE GEORGE AWARDS GALA will once again take place on Sunday evening. So join us on June 28th as we celebrate your success – Philly-style!

REST EASY – we have even found a way to save you dough on hotel accommodations by offering multiple hotel options!  This list of reasonably priced hotels is arranged by proximity to Moore College, so you can make the choice that best fits your budget and your needs. But hurry, as we have not blocked rooms for MicroSociety.
