A1 My best PD was a hands-on tech tools session. How better to learn than by doing! My Professional Development page https://t.co/EYf2WP39Rn Now great PD is the #edcamp model of, by and for the participants. #satchat#edtechchat#edchat
Totally agree with you Jerry. Hands-on allows for more senses to involved in the process. #edcamp@EdcampUSA to is best PD I have ever attended. #satchat
A1: Organized a mini #EdCamp last week for our staff. Staff embraced having a choice and great discussions were had. Feedback was very positive with requests to do it again. #satchat
A2: By designing PD for our building or district that is relevant and engaging. #4OCF does have great ideas, and so do your Ts. Tap in to those. Create #EDCamp style sessions, pick a theme, incorporate great snacks & fun atmosphere. #satchat
#satchat Q1: The Patriots have become one of the BEST Football Franchises ever with 5 Super Bowl victories. What is the BEST PD session youβve ever attended? #satchat
A1: I loved the #edcamp model and obviously #gafefsu#gafefsuclasses w/ @csheil
A3: tough question for this crowd as we are clearly prioritizing PD by participating in this chat , #edcamp, #coffeeEdu, etc. - for others maybe just building it into schedule, maybe a little less TV? #satchat
A2: By engaging peers and designing PD experiences that allow for choice, collaboration, and creativity! Use twitter chats for books studies, design an #edcamp! Do an #coffeeedu#pottypd Read #4OCF#satchat
A4: give Ts a voice. Empower to take ownership of their own learning. Surveys, convos and (itβs not the last time Iβll say it!) #edcamp style PD a few times a year (if not more!) #satchat
There are so many online resources that we can use for our own PD. Would rather do it on my own, on my own time, in the comfort of my home. I still love to meet my PLN at #edcamp. #satchat
#satchat A4 I need to remind colleagues how much we gained from choice-based PD. If there is enthusiasm for the process, change can happen. In the meantime, I have 2 #edcamp sessions on my calendar! #edcampct#edcampswct
A4: I love edcamps for educators choosing their professional learning. But admin might say: "Where's the accountability?" Is there a strategy, plan, or path to apply and prove your learning post-#edcamp? Will that meet a common or unique learning target or goal? #satchat
Joan, #EdTech Director at @HighPointU for #FamilyWeekend - Give Ts autonomy over developing personal growth goals, create multiple pathways, #EdCamp - Online (iTunes U etc) #PLN - Book Groups -just like with our Ss, we need to personalize & then support/cheer like crazy #satchat
Sharing at staff meetings! Like that! But how about the before part? Do educators express goals in learning before attending #edcamp, get their #PD, & then report back? This could be a good model in the making, & a way to celebrate the total learning process in edcamps! #satchat
Sometimes, yes. It was just an example of: How can we have educators express goals pre-edcamp, attend, and then report back afterwards? How can we leverage #edcamp-like prof learning as a process to get more personalization and differentiation out of our #PD opps? #satchat
LOVE @Flipgrid. I think a #flipgrid reflection right-there-on-the-spot would be valuable, but also how about a #FlipgridFever reponse of demonstrating the newfound learning experienced at #edcamp applied in action in learning spaces? #satchat
A4 Teachers donβt have to wait for admin to give us a voice. We can use our voices through Twitter, blogs, videos, podcasts, websites, newsletters, local papers, and professional periodicals. The more we tell our stories, the harder it is to ignore our experience.

First time at #edcamp in a discussion on student service learning- Iβm hung up on the question of who is the service for? Personal benefit of the student or the greater good of society? @edcampaacps
Yes!!! One of the best PDβs I had was with @DougTimm34 and @roseyburke11 when they hosted #edcamp last year!! Teaches had time and space to talk and collaborate! It was pretty awesome plus I got to run into the fabulous @RobynHowton! π€π€#satchat

For my money, the autonomy and choice of #edcamp is the best PD I've experienced. Ts make the schedule the morning of based on their current need. Would love to see more schools use this model for PD!!

A2: It's great to connect afar with Twitter but a "new" way to connect for many people is F2F: visiting others, taking time to talk, helping in person. I am also a huge fan of #EdCamp models of connecting. #leadlap
Love EdCamps! March 17 is big job fair day for @FCPS1jobs so canβt make this one. Iβm seeing an #fcps1kidsdeserveit#Edcamp in our near future! π

#edcamprichardson Feel free to move between sessions if you feel that it doesn't meet your needs. Maybe you are already familiar with the presentation. Maybe you want to attend as many awesome sessions as possible. Go ahead and move!

I loved learning about @Seesaw and making connections across Cen-Tex and within the RRISD. It was also cool to see F2F some of my PLN. Being w/so many people passionate about kids and self development in a stress free environment was awesome. Excited for our next #EdCamp
Why I love #EdCamp and the edu-twitter community: I was able to help a few teachers with #inquiry#pbl & other best practices today @EdCampRio and in turn, others helped me with my need to reduce the time it takes to give online feedback. Teach & be taught! #EachOneTeachOne
Kudos to our teachers for giving up part of their weekend to connect with and learn from colleagues around Central Texas at an #EdCamp! #WeAreGISD#LeadGrowServe
The #CapCuePLN hosted an amazing day of learning today at #WestlakeCharter. Kudos to the Board who organized the EdCamp and #gratitude to all those who participated!
