WHAT TO EXPECT

Expect to actively participate! 

This is not your average sit-and-get PD. We learn by doing, and you'll be invited to learn a LOT. 

Expect to meet amazing people! 

Design thinking begins with empathy for the person you're designing for, so you'll be put into pairs and small groups to get to know one another. 

Expect to have choices! 

Local educators provide a variety of interactive breakout sessions, so there's bound to be something of interest to you. 

Expect to leave with ideas! 

We hope you leave DesignCampCLE with tangible ideas that you can implement with your students and in your school. You might also leave with some curiosity about where you can learn more; check out the Resources Gallery. 

What if i'm not a designer?

We believe all educators are designers of their school communities, creating solutions through iteration and experimentation. If you’ve ever found a custom solution to serve the needs of one student, you’re a designer!

can i bring a friend?

Please do! Bring two! If you bring friends, your day is EXTRA free! 

will i get a tour of hive makerspace?

Sure! HIVE Makerspace is open access to all members of the community, including YOU! After DesignCampCLE ends, we’ll offer optional tours. You might even make something…

what about food?

We’ll take care of light snacks and beverages to fuel you in the morning. Please bring your own lunch! This is a volunteer-driven event on a tight budget to keep it free for you, so if you have special dietary needs, please bring your own snacks. 

Will you accommodate my learning / physical needs?

Absolutely and to the very best of our ability! On the registration form, please indicate any accommodations we can provide. DesignCampCLE is a live and in-person experience, so there is not a remote option.

Can PD reeeeeally be joyful? 

We guarantee fun or your money back. 😉
