But these conferences are not like an edcamp or an unstructured unconference of the kind you may have heard of.

All too often in education – whether that be at a conference, in a professional learning workshop, or even at a faculty meeting, we have become used to one person in the room being the “expert”, or the “Oz” around a particular topic.

The summit was, simply put, an incredible learning experience.
