The idea of bringing together major players in education to talk, discuss and debate is already happening, just on a smaller scale with events like #Edchat and Edcamps. We have to examine what we are doing now and where we are going now, keeping an eye to the future of course. Questioning the present is a much harder task.

The natural thing for an educator to do when he or she is teaching a professional development course however is to go with what he or she knows.

Actively look for PD that will be meaningful for you, such as free EdCamps in your area , and seek opportunities to learn and connect with other educators whenever you can. One of the best times to do this, of course, is during the summer break. Professional development can also include informal discussions with coworkers.
