One of the main highlights of the miGoogle conference are the amazing ways that midwest educators are using Google tools in the classroom. Each year we select and feature the best technology using teachers in the midwest. The call for speakers for the 2016 miGoogle conference will open in the spring (late May)

The 2016 miGoogle conference is a collaboration between Lake Fenton Schools, and Sowash Ventures, LLC. Google is providing logistical support and marketing help with the conference. This conference is the official Google regional conference for the state of Michigan.

• Introduce new users to Google products
• Push existing users to learn and try new things.
• Offer one or more workshop on all of Google’s products.
• Inspire educators to incorporate technology into their school in a way that expands student learning and engagement.

Although technology developed by Google is the platform for this conference, the real focus is discussing and sharing ways that technology of any kind can enhance learning and engage students.

Registration for this conference is limited to 800.
