The FACE Goals are as follows:
FACE operates as an independent, member-financed, non-profit corporation. The state, Regions, and county locals all elect their officers annually. FACE co-sponsors and participates in the Florida Educational Technology Conference (FETC) with its members serving on committees as presenters. FACE also has a permanent seat on the FETC Board of Directors.
FACE serves as both a catalyst and an informational center to address the urgent issues of instructional technology.
Join or renew a membership with FACE and be a part of this important work: serve on committees that prepare the groundwork for concerted action; share your knowledge at state and regional conferences; contribute news articles, or letters for the FACE News Briefs. Whether you are a technology-using educator or just interested in the use of technology in education, participation in FACE will be both rewarding and effective.
Local FACE chapters hold regular informational meeting for their members on important issues and often sponsor special events. These events may include but are not limited to technology fairs, software and hardware demonstrations and educational/motivational speakers. The meetings also provide members an opportunity to network with other professionals who advocate the Integration of Technology in Education.
