Have You Checked Out ManACE!?

     Today I spent my first day out of the classroom attending the annual planning meeting for ManACE (Manitoba Association for Computing Educators). 

Being that I am almost 4 hours out of the city I don't get to attend many meetings in person so it was awesome to catch-up with those that I only see once or twice a year! Furthermore, we are welcoming four new members to our board so I am adding new contacts to my circle :)

Here are some of the awesome things you want to know about!

1 ) SAGE Sessions

- ManACE is the only SAGE group to offer PD opportunities

  across the province rather than centralized in Winnipeg or

  Brandon! In fact, this year we are offering sessions in:

     - Winnipeg

     - Warren

     - Oakbank

     - Decker Colony School

     - Lorette

     - Swan River

     - Portage la Prairie

- Check out the any of the 17 session descriptions here or

   register for a session here

2 ) SEED Grants

- Every year ManACE offers up eight grants of $900 to promote

  ICT Literacy in Manitoba schools. These grants can go towards

  hardware, software, professional development, etc and are 

  available for early years, middle years, senior years, and admin

  levels.

- This year's SEED Grant applications will be available in November!

- Check out our webpage to read over information from last year

  to get you thinking!
