Did you know the Festival is also taking place in Glow this year? Using Glow, you could ask your seminar, spotlight or keynote speaker a question prior to attending their session. Better still, you will be able to revisit the session recorded in Glow, and even continue the discussion after the festival has finished. Glow will also be the only place you can find ‘Conference in Pictures’.

If you have a Glow login – go to the SLF Extra tab in the National site and join the discussion.

The Scottish Learning Festival will take place on 24-25 September 2008 at Glasgow’s SECC.

The main theme of this year’s event is Curriculum for Excellence with a focus on outcomes and experiential learning and innovation in the curriculum.  Glow, the national education intranet currently being rolled out across Scotland, will be the subsidiary theme for the two-day festival. Planning is well underway for the conference programme which will be released in April. Due to the popularity of the Scottish Learning Festival and the demand to host seminars, prospective speakers have been asked to complete a document emphasising how their session meets the key themes for the event to ensure there is a breadth of workshops available to suit every practitioner and education professional. Last year almost 7,000 delegates attended the event. If you missed out you can still see videos from the keynote speakers and podcasts on Connected live and find out all the latest news at the Scottish Learning Festival website.

The All about Glow seminar was very popular and has introduced many professionals to the tools and professional development opportunities which will be available to Scottish schools.

Are you inspired by what you heard, and do you think that these services will meet your needs?

See the programme brochure for the range of other seminars and sessions on the Scottish Education Village where you can familiarise yourselves with the scope of developments proposed under the Glow umbrella.
