We are pleased to invite you to attend the 16th. Annual Bi-National Conference on Education. This year, it will be hosted by the Brownsville Independent School District on October 30-31, 2009 at Rivera High School.
The goal of the conference is to prepare students to meet the challenges of today’s ever changing world. This year’s theme is Stimulating Our Education. This conference will focus on sharing experiences, knowledge, strategies, methods and techniques as well as presenting results of projects in educational research that favor the stimulating connection or integration of the productive and educational sectors.
Stimulating Education is a lifetime goal that expands the current definition of schooling as it offers parents, educators, and citizens everywhere techniques for transforming education into an integral process. This process incorporates book learning, or academics, with direct life experiences, technology, and research.
