What is an EdCamp?

An EdCamp is affectionately known as an "unconference", which means it's an "unplanned" conference. That doesn't mean there isn't a structure, but rather the sessions aren't planned in advance. The day of the EdCamp conference the sessions are determined by the conference attendees. Anyone can facilitate a session! The atmosphere is relaxed and informal and participants are encouraged to speak up during the session to ask questions and share. Best of all, EdCamps are FREE and are typically scheduled for 1/2 a day on a Saturday. Learn more about what you could expect at an EdCamp here.
