ICT in Education Open Days

SAVE THE DATES

The ICT in Education Open Day is an annual event where we showcase innovative use of technology in teaching and learning, promote awareness of new technology in the education sector and share best practice in ICT integration. 

For this year, we would like to collaborate with UFS to expose Free State teachers to the IBP re-Launch which will run concurrently with this event. This is the first year the event will be decentralized to the districts bringing the event to you!

Registrations will take place a few weeks before the events. Limited space is available - book your space in advance.

Make sure to subscribe to this blog. You will only be notified when a new post and details on events are posted. 

Kind regards
FSDOE E-Learning Team

The National Teaching Awards – Written by Gerard Malan (Aurora Primary School)

The NTA is an awards competition initiative from the Department of Education to reward teachers from all over the country for hard work in and out of the classroom. It is that time of the year that the nominations for the National Teaching Awards must be prepared.

"When I was nominated for this award I was very sceptical and thought it was only for exceptional teachers. It was not for me!! I am just an ordinary teacher teaching Afrikaans Second Language to Primary school learners! But after some research, I realized that it is for the ordinary teacher who is dedicated and enthusiastic towards his/her teaching profession. The teacher who spend hours preparing lessons and who cares and loves the learners in his/ her classroom." Gerhard Malan, 17th National Bronze winner.

You are entitled to be rewarded for this! You owe it to yourself! The NTA's is a wonderful experience, even if you don't make it to the finals. It will be a life-changing experience for those who are lucky enough to make it to the finals.
