I’ve talked to some administrators who say, “Hey, we did an EdCamp last month, and the teachers loved it. He received his Masters in Instructional Technology through the University of Northern Iowa in 2014. He is a 2016 ISTE presenter and recognized as the 2014 Iowa Safe Schools Educator of the Year. They love that autonomy.”.

The Trifecta of Rural PD, Part 2: Edcamps Problem Two: How do you bring educators together for a day of learning that doesn’t cost any money to gather? Potential Solution: While collaborations and connections are formed on Twitter chats, the local EdCamp (essentially a free “unconference”) takes us into Step Two, strengthening these bonds.

In my workshops, I always encourage people that if the session doesn’t work for them, they are more than welcome to leave (but not in a threatening way, more in the idea of the Edcamp model of “voting with your feet”), or they can work on things that they are interested in learning.

She then saw how this came back around to her when she had felt her voice was being shut down at an EdCamp: Every time I opened my mouth to say something it was met with a snarky comment, laughter, or simply dismissed. I have to be honest, after the first two times, I didn’t think much of it.

I used to feel the same way about Edcamp; I did not really understand the appeal of the process and thought it seemingly was a waste of time, even though so many people said the exact opposite. It is not about a right and wrong in the process, but more the idea of “I am good with what we are doing at this present time”.
