A small set of educators could always create an Edcamp , a model in need of revival in our times. My first experience at SXSW EDU felt more like the typical education technology conference. Every conference space can learn how to better organize their work to focus on the learning, just as we aspire to do for our students.

As a former Director of Instructional Technology my job was to provide technology embedded professional development (PD) to a district of 4000 teachers. The traditional forms of sit-and-get PD are giving way to MOOCs, webinars, Edcamps and flipped learning. So we had to look at how to reclaim some of that time.

At the end of June a group of passionate, dedicated educators gathered for one of New Jersey’s last EdCamps of the 2017 school year.

I do a lot of work with teachers, kids and school leaders around Technology Integration into their classrooms on a weekly basis.

Should we let adults struggle?
