What is an Edcamp?

Do you want to take control of your own learning? Why not try an Edcamp? Started by the Edcamp Foundation with the vision of “ Promoting organic, participant-driven professional development for K-12 educators worldwide.” To achieve that vision, Edcamps follow these basic principles.

According to the Edcamp foundation website, an Edcamp is:

·         free

·         non-commercial and conducted with a vendor-free presence

·         hosted by any organization interested in furthering the edcamp mission

·         made up of sessions that are determined on the day of the event

·         events where anyone who attends can be a presenter

·         reliant on the “law of two feet” that encourages participants to find a session that meets their needs
