Alaska needs an #EdCamp movement statewide for sure #akedchat

A8: #akedchat I want to do an unconference

nick_schumacher Mar 27 @ 11:50 PM EDT

A8. Don't forget the lunch room. Hallway Office Coffee shop Gym Church Community hall and. Local collaboration is important too. #akedchat

YES! @AlexandraOtto We need to keep the convo of #edcampAK going! #akedchat

#akedchat #FuseRI Q9: How do we generate interest and get committed participants in a fellowship?

hilgerl Mar 27 @ 11:52 PM EDT

Q9: Collect input on needs from Ts; Personalize; offer choices; connect Ts w similar professional learning goal interests #akedchat

spiraledu Mar 27 @ 11:52 PM EDT

we should try a GHO #edcampAK session. Set sessions with google doc @alicekeeler #akedchat

In reply to @andreaupnorth, @alicekeeler

nfuerst2 Mar 27 @ 11:52 PM EDT

Agreed. Community support and collaboration in distance programs would be an outstanding benefit to the program. #akedchat

In reply to @nick_schumacher

hilgerl Mar 27 @ 11:53 PM EDT

A9: Maybe make small cohorts out of the "larger" fellowship so that Ts feel connected sooner #akedchat

andreaupnorth Mar 27 @ 11:53 PM EDT

#akedchat Yes, and Alaska is so unique. We all are.

@ShumwayAK Gets to the heart of it. VTC teachers are often operating in isolation. Sometimes you are the only 1 in your district #akedchat
