Meanwhile, the most enthusiastic listeners whisper to each other, or form mini-groups outside the conference walls, maybe even at a social gathering later that day. The session on grant writing, for example, was a dud because everyone there wanted to learn how to write them and nobody knew where to start.

The idea of a connected educator is nothing new, but the platforms through which educators can find other educators, share ideas, and learn are growing.

For those who don''t know, Edcamp is a great series of free, unconferences for educators. The Edcamp model is unique in that attendees set the agenda the morning of the conference and the sessions are not led by one person, but are rather a collaboration of both the facilitator and attendees. I highly recommend Edcamps!
