We are delighted to bring you the latest news about three keynote speakers for the AGTA 2013 Conference. Professors David Lambert and Simon Catling from the United Kingdom and Professor Peter Newman from Australia have accepted AGTA's invitation to be keynote speakers at the AGTA 2013 Conference in Perth!
This is wonderful news given David Lambert and Simon Catling have considerable experience with the national curriculum in the United Kingdom. Simon Catling’s experience with primary geography implementation in particular ensures that this conference will appeal to primary school teachers as well as secondary school teachers.
