EdCamps are sometimes referred to as an ‘unconference.’
No keynote speakers. No PowerPoints. No workshops.
This is about the power of sharing experiences through discussion. There is no pre-planned agenda. You will engage in two 1-hr discussion topics of your choice with a group of other educators and students from the Olympia School District. This is a chance to unpack your recent experiences with education in the days of COVID-19 with an eye for the future. We are framing this EdCamp with “Obstacles as Opportunities” in mind.
Rule of Two Feet -- you are encouraged to leave the room and join another if the current discussion is not really ‘speaking’ to you ; )
Conversations NOT arguments
This is not about stumping for ‘your thing’ -- rather sharing your perspective and hearing others
Be Kind. Be Honest. Be Respectful.
No ‘spamming’ the conversation -- leave room for discussion
Step Up / Step Back
Try to let conversation flow while being cognizant of unheard voices
Some air-time is OK!
Take some silent reflection time before sharing out
Feel way off track? Go back to the central question for your discussion group
Pose an open-ended question
Internet lagging? Turn off your video or call in using the Session ID
Feeling Zoom Fatigued? Try looking off the screen / turn off ‘self-view’
