edcampPDX is free, democratic, participant-driven professional development. It’s an unconference built on collaboration and dialogue, not keynotes. I’m at the edcamp and also documenting the event via the hashtag #edcampPDX. This Storify will remain as an artifact long after the tweetstream flows on. 

The event is being held at La Salle Catholic College Preparatory. Portland Oregon. August 18, 2011. Link to edcampPDX wiki Next edcampPDX set for Nov 11.

edcampPDX is free, democratic, participant-driven professional development. It’s an unconference built on collaboration and dialogue, not keynotes. I’ve been part of the steering committee for the upcoming edcampPDX. Here’s our goals:

  • Networking: Connect educators in the Portland / Oregon area
  • Instructional Practices: Learn new curriculum ideas, best practices, and/or tech integration ideas from other educators
  • Personalized: You customize your own PD by suggesting, facilitating and attending sessions about topics that interest you!
