The Celebration of Teaching & Learning 2012

Come share your knowledge and be inspired at The Celebration of Teaching & Learning 2012! The Celebration—presented by THIRTEEN and WLIW21—is a premier professional development conference that brings together the world’s best thinkers, practitioners, and more than 10,000 educators to share their passion for teaching and learning. This two-day experience for educators happens March 16-17, 2012 at the Hilton New York in New York City.

Throughout the two days, attendees will experience four distinct learning environments through our six plenary sessions, over 40 Featured Speaker sessions, over 100 hands-on “In the Classroom” workshops, and two filled exhibitor halls featuring the latest in educational tools, interactive events and book signings.

The Celebration is perhaps best known for its remarkable Keynote Speakers, men and women who are at the very top of their fields and whose insight will raise your expectations for your profession and for yourselves. Past notable speakers have included Dr. Mehmet Oz, Leymah Gbowee, U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan, Queen Noor, Bobby McFerrin, Sir Kenneth Robinson, UN Messenger of Peace Jane Goodall, Google Chairman and CEO Eric Schmidt, world-renowned autistic scholar Temple Grandin, MacArthur Genius Award-winning environmental pioneer Majora Carter, and many more.

Who will you meet at the Celebration? Most importantly, your peers! Educators from all 50 states, D.C. and Canada have come together at the event to help shape the future of our schools. You can expect more than 10,000 educators in attendance including global experts, activists, academics, thinkers and educators sharing the best in education practice and infusing creativity and curiosity into K-12 classrooms.
