1 EXHIBITION AND SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES TEACHER EDUCATOR CONFERENCE 2014 HYDERABAD INTERNATIONAL CONVENTION CENTRE FEBRUARY

2 CONFERENCE THEME This year the 2014 International English Language Teacher Educator Conference carries 'innovation' as its theme. This conference will encourage discusssions around the roles of exploration and experimentation in English language teacher education through technology and other innovative and pioneering practices. JOIN US FOR THE 2014 EDITION OF THE WORLD'S LARGEST TEACHER EDUCATOR CONFERENCE By choosing the theme of innovation, we include, but in no way limit, the scope to discussions on the use of technology for teacher education and/or as a tool for use in the classroom. Technology is viewed as one of the vehicles for innovations in our field, in contexts where its use is appropriate and possible. Central to the theme is the need to encourage teachers to experiment in the classroom and in doing so, find new ways to support their students learning in the classroom. Diverse teaching environments across India result in an even greater need for teachers to be equipped with skills to seek out and examine new ways of approaching or solving common problems and the challenges that teachers face in the classroom. The open call for sponsorship proposals closes on 30 November Technology and Gold sponsors have the option for opting for speaking sessions.

Giles Hall, Marketing Manager, BKSB "The main difference this year has been the seating in the stall area. During the coffee breaks the conference delegates have an opportunity to share and discuss in an informal setting which is just as valuable as the main event." Naomi Moir, Professional Development Services Manager, Oxford University Press Mark Hunter, Head Marketing and Communications, Trinity College, London "It helps us to interact on a larger platform where you have authors, teachers and researchers from every walk of life who are engaged in ELT.
