The Showcase is designed to be a forum for teacher candidates to share their best work with their peers in an in-house conference venue. It is a tremendous opportunity for students to enhance their scholarship and presentational skills. It also affords student professional development experiences they can add to their ever-growing résumés. This year’s virtual Showcase welcomes the 2020 Seminole County School District Teacher of the Year, Ms. Sarah Hall, as our Keynote Speaker and Mr. Chris Pombonyo, the 2017 SCPS Teacher of the Year. We also welcome the high school students joining us from teacher preparation programs. We hope you enjoy the free KnightED Talks Student Showcase and leave with many innovative, creative, and inspirational ideas that you can apply when you have your own classrooms.
The theme for the 2021 KnightEd Talks Student Showcase is:
Teachers are Superheroes!
