Can’t wait to see you at the TechFest in Minot Oct. 3-4!  Come and be amazed at what we are able to do with technology!

It is that time of year again—time to submit your presentations for the Fall Face2Face in Minot. NDATL is looking for members who are willing to showcase their use of technology in all areas. Can you share tips about iPad use, or Web 2.0 tools that work well in the classroom, or social networking tools that make classroom work more collaborative? Maybe you are a hardware guru, or actually understand how to make networks work? We would love to hear from you! Submit your ideas by Sept. 2 for consideration by the NDATL Board of Directors. Thanks, everyone! We want the Fall Face2Face TechFest to be the best ever!
