What To Expect at Edcamp
Professional Development By Teachers, For Teachers
Casual Attire a Must!
Edcamp is BYOD- Bring you own Device
Bring a laptop, tablet, phone, or even paper and pencil. Bring what you feel most comfortable using for the day!
Edcamp is BYOS- Build Your Own Schedule
Attendees build the schedule the morning of the event. There are no paid speakers or expensive vendors just YOUR great ideas. I mean who knows more about education than educators? If you would like to sign up to facilitate a session you are agreeing to initiate a conversation about an education topic. So, what would you like to learn about or share with someone else?
The best sessions begin with an idea, a conundrum, a question, a problem, a doubt....
Possible session suggestions (taken from other EdCamps) just to get your creative juices flowing:
Wireless Access will be available for all users
