WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
WHAT DOES THIS ALL MEAN?
Edcamps are a modern, flexible way of guaranteeing tailored professional development in the education field. Come enjoy a day with colleagues from Whitfield County Schools and beyond. Arrive with an idea for a session that you would like to lead or with the anticipation of a day full of learning. A session might explore a technology tool, a discussion about best practices, or a collaborative presentation with multiple facilitators.
Over the course of the day you will have the opportunity to attend multiple sessions. The rule of the un-conference is to “vote with your feet”. If a session doesn’t meet your needs, simply get up and move on to another room.
