    Thank you for applying to be a lead presenter for the 2015 University of Michigan 4T Virtual Conference. We are seeking motivated, imaginative, and forward-thinking educators to present at our 4T (Teachers Teaching Teachers about Technology) Virtual Conference in May 2015. These K-12 teachers and administrators use technology to enhance communication and learning in their classrooms and schools. 

    We use a professional development approach with conference presenters: we select a small group (6-8) of teachers and administrators to participate in a series of hands-on virtual workshops prior to the conference to develop their virtual teaching skills.  The 5 short virtual workshops, facilitated by faculty at the University of Michigan School of Education, School of Information, and Oakland Schools, will expand educators' online presenting skills during March, April and May in preparation to present a webinar during the May 2015 virtual conference. Presenters will select ONE engaging lesson or activity they already teach that integrates technology and convert it to a virtual webinar lesson for participants to experience during the 4T Conference. These workshops will be live and virtual, thus you do not have to be local or native to Michigan in order to be a presenter in the conference.
