About the Conference
Every year since 2013, Magna’s technology conference has brought together educators and tech-savvy professionals to explore effective ways to use technology as a tool in online, face-to-face, and blended classrooms.
The two-and-a-half-day Magna Teaching with Technology Conference is designed to put the right technology solutions in your hands so you can help your students realize their potential.
The content and speakers are carefully selected to meet the need of educators at all levels—from beginning teachers who want to use technology in their classrooms, to experienced educators who want to get better at incorporating technology.
The most important part of this conference comes down to one thing—people. You’ll mix with colleagues you already know and strike up new friendships. You’ll hear how they’ve faced the same challenges as you and the solutions they’ve uncovered.
At the Magna Teaching with Technology Conference, you gain practical, accessible, and relevant insights that will help you and your students reach new heights of success. Plus, you get to explore the exciting conference host city!
