I am getting more and more excited about the upcoming MAME conference, October 24-26. As President Elect of the Michigan Association for Media in Education I am the Chair of the annual conference this year. The conference will take place at the Grand Traverse Resort & Spa in Acme, Michigan near Traverse City. Michigan in the fall rocks!
This is the annual conference for media specialists in our state. Our theme this year is “School Library 2.0: Curriculum Collaboration” so we would love to have teachers and administrators attend our conference. The sessions are always excellent and the keynote speakers Gary Hartzell and Marcia Mardis will be outstanding. We also have author Todd Strasser and others presenting.
New this year: we are giving away an iPod Shuffle at the end of the President’s Gala. On that evening we give out our awards and have an auction. We will also have a celebratory cake because what is a celebration without cake! Also new this year: MAME Vendor Scholarships. We have five scholarships that will pay for the registrations of some MAME members who are certified media specialists registered for the conference, are currently working in a school and who are paying their own expenses on the conference.
Please check out the conference wiki for all of the exciting highlights of the MAME 34 conference!
