 MEGA
holds professional development sessions four times each year. The
meetings are usually 3 hours long, held after school or on a Saturday
morning. Two meetings are held in the fall, two in the spring. The
last spring meeting, often the first week of May, is the MEGA Showcase.
Students and their teachers volunteer to exhibit their multimedia
and Web projects.
 Technology
renewal credits are available for teachers who participate. Teachers
who cannot attend in person can still benefit by using the resources
found on this Web page. Teachers who wish to connect to meetings
