About EdCamp

What is edcamp all about?

Edcamp is a free, participant driven, "unconference" designed to inspire transformative teaching and innovative learning.  Participants create sessions the morning of EdCamp. You can create a session based on knowledge/idea you want to share, or post a question/idea you want to learn more about and see if others can help. The videos below will give you a better idea of EdCamp.
