Hi!
Your conference sounds like a wonderful Event! I teach 8th graders, and have a word press blog where they comment, share their voices, and thread, on a variety of topics.
They are engaged learners, who see the befits of sharing their thinking outside the classroom walls.
I would love thei blog to be shared at your event. However, we are in the USA. Question- are you interested in sharing their work on the on line blog at the day, despite the distance constraint.
Let me know!
Best,
Grace W.

This is such a cool idea! I think children are so surrounded by new technology that they will definitely find new innovations on their own. This competition is a brilliant idea. I will try to convince my students to join.
