Texas Edu Fest - 9:00am-4:00pm 11/14
This is a one day event designed to help Texas educators who are teaching during the Global Pandemic. Our goal is to help you save time and energy as well as fill your bucket during this challenging time in education. Features 7 breakout sessions on educational technology.
Edcamp Aldine - 8:30am-12:00pm 11/14
Looking for something different? Unlike traditional conferences which have schedules set months in advance by the people running the conference, an Edcamp has an agenda that’s created by the participants at the start of the event. Instead of one person talking for an hour in each session, people are encouraged to have discussions and hands-on interaction.
