Free PD opportunity for preservice/student teachers

Edcamp is a FREE day of professional development

for teachers, specialists, principals, administrators and more. It's not like any other professional development you've experienced before. Edcamp's innovative format allows the knowledge and interests of those in attendance to lead the conversations and learning.

When participants arrive to this event, they help create the content for the day. Participants suggest sessions that they would be willing to give their own expertise on, or topics that they'd like to participate in a discussion about. From these suggestions, the topics of the day are decided. There are NO vendors involved, but there are lots of great prizes that will be given away at the end of the day, ranging from conference registrations, to free software, to pro website subscriptions, and more. This event is open to anyone in the education field and topics of discussion and collaboration are wide-ranging. Previous topics have run the gamut from project-based learning, to classroom management, to Google Drive classroom uses. See our website (http://www.edcampphoenix.org/session-matrix) for past workshop topics.  


We would love to have some preservice teachers/student teachers attend. It's in Phoenix but if they are heading down for mountain for the weekend, we would love to have them there. Other preservice teachers have attended and found the experience valuable. It is really a fun way for other teachers to connect and learn from each other. If you have any questions, please let me know. I've attached the information flyer. Thanks!
