Edcamp - teacher run, awesome, free educational conferences


edcamp

Edcamp is a great series of free, unconferences for educators. The Edcamp model is unique in that attendees set the agenda the morning of the conference and the sessions are not led by one person, but are rather a collaboration of both the facilitator and attendees.

This is a great opportunity to connect, share, teach, learn, and expand their personal learning network. Edcamps are excellent resources for teachers and offer some of the finest professional development around.

Here is a great article by Mary Beth Hertz on Edcamp and the unconference idea.

Find an Edcamp near you and attend, learn, share, and collaborate.
