A2: they can share their greatness and learn about hidden (and maybe common) talents of their peers #Learnlap

TeacherTownsend Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

a2: For the same reason we would. Choice, personal interest, and a chance to share ideas. #learnLAP

JamieArmin Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

@ARutschke Truth! #learnlap

RLTaylor94 Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2 Students love choice and the ability to guide their own learning. They're up and in control It’s a powerful experience for them #learnlap

MrJGore Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2 - Ss strive for and need choice. Why not allow them an opp. to learn something meaningful that gets them excited and engaged? #learnlap

abe_hege Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2: For Ss, it breaks the mundane and fosters a creative and rigorous climate where they will and want to succeed in learning. #learnlap

valluzzi_anne Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

#LearnLAP A2 For the same reasons we gave, Ss are empowered when they control their own learning

StefaniePitzer Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A2: They are in the driver's seat & the thought of control alone is enough to have them on the edge of their seats! :) #learnlap

daleyscience Apr 11 @ 8:14 PM EDT

A1 Edcamp is exciting because you never know what the topics will be or how you will be inspired! #learnlap

MrB913 Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: Same reasons for teachers! Plus it's novel, new and exciting. Ss get to call the shots. #LearnLAP

TracyMailloux Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 Because we, the teachers, are excited about it for one! #LearnLAP

Elementarist Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

pjcerullo Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: CHOICE! PASSION! INTEREST! ENGAGEMENT! EMPOWERED TO CHOOSE! #Learnlap

PrincipalSmart Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 Some haven't had a lot of opportunity to direct their own learning #LearnLAP

CourtneyKofeldt Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A1: The big picture behind edcamps is that the room is smarter than the individual. Everyone is interacting and adding! #learnlap

mrskmattson Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: I'm watching Ss embrace this in our library & makerspace because they have choice, voice and a low stakes env to try & fail in #LearnLAP

kaseybert Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

I am interested in student led edCamps. Has anyone had one? Our campus is all pre-AP and AP and our kids will rock it. #LearnLAP

froehlichm Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 Ss get excited bc it's new & they love choice too. They take ownership, like Ts do, when it's something they get voice & choice #learnlap

nbartley6 - Moderator Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

@daleyscience Hey Kristin!! So glad another #edcampgrafton friend could make it!! #learnlap

ERobbPrincipal Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

@TeacherTownsend A2 #learnlap Choice is just not good for adults it is just as appropriate for students!

KimberlyOnak1 Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2: Ss get to work at own pace with own interests. Ss are in control of their learning. #LearnLAP

MrJGore Apr 11 @ 8:15 PM EDT

A2 - How many times do we give Ss a chance to share what they know? Confidence, engagement, excitement increases. #learnlap

sandyrotto Apr 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2: Too often, Ss aren't asked what THEY want to learn. That offer will go a long way to deepening trust & building relationships. #learnlap

Glennr1809 Apr 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2: Being heard, respected, trusted. Learning what they want to learn, not being forced. Ownership, personalized #learnlap

SarahDahlheimer Apr 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A2: Choice motivates! It doesn't matter if you are a S or a T. #LearnLAP

itsmeSpiri Apr 11 @ 8:16 PM EDT

A7 I think it should be just like T EdCamp. Be there for the kick off, guidance, and participation. #learnlap

Scotteach Apr 11 @ 8:52 PM EDT

A7 EdCamps have a topical focus... Education. So I think teachers should select a topic to focus on during the Ss EdCamp #LearnLAP

@khurdhorst @ChristinaMLuce @sandyrotto We had some struggles w/ TED Talks last year, but well worth it: https://t.co/RyPiT7pCOy #LearnLAP

nbartley6 - Moderator Apr 11 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@Scotteach The term school related was pretty loose:) but we basically went with that theme last year #learnlap

JamieArmin Apr 11 @ 8:53 PM EDT

@daleyscience @Glennr1809 Google Hangouts. I'll show you one tomorrow :) #learnlap

valluzzi_anne Apr 11 @ 8:54 PM EDT

A8 Try it out and let the Ss do the talking! #LearnLAP

ChristinaMLuce Apr 11 @ 8:54 PM EDT

@craigyen right, but if your students are used to leading in other ways in the classroom, I think the skills/norms transfer. #LearnLAP

dayankee Apr 11 @ 8:54 PM EDT

Our student edcamp topics range from playing hockey to writing code. Kids share their expertise #learnlap

PaulSolarz - Moderator Apr 11 @ 8:54 PM EDT

I'm helping organize #EdCampIllinois & wondering if we could get sponsors for our Student-Led EdCamp! Cool to have door prizes! #LearnLAP

Hop on twitter now and get ready to #tlap chat with Pirate Teacher @StefaniePitzer #leadlap #educoach #lovemyschoolday #learnlap

A8: Start small, and then model the success. Student talk and success will grow interest, growth and more success! #LearnLAP

CourtneyKofeldt Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A8: Student stories/interviews are the best way to share the magic of edcamps. #Learnlap

nbartley6 - Moderator Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

#LearnLap A8 Ts need to feel the magic by doing it-I owe so much to #edcampgrafton We need to simply make Ts aware:) https://t.co/1EIe8e8sfj

AmandaBuethe Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

We'd love for the #learnlap peeps to join us at 8:00 for #ksedchat! https://t.co/xbgEP4cVIN

ChristinaMLuce Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

@khurdhorst @sandyrotto Your kids are awesome to be sure, but they are blessed by you! #LearnLAP

@TrudeauLisa Love the Dewey quote, "We don't learn from experience; we learn from reflecting on experience." #LearnLAP

sandyrotto Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A8: We need to just do it. Seeing it in action, gathering Ss feedback and word of mouth will promote better than our lip service. #learnlap

A8- Ss buzzing will always help with the magic, as will inviting Makers from diff classes to leave their classrooms for the pm. #LearnLAP

#LearnLAP Question 8! https://t.co/tHRvFYPzhk

craigyen Apr 11 @ 8:55 PM EDT

A7) I think you vary it... for instance you could have a science or math themed edcamp. Students can still personalize content #learnLAP

daleyscience Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A8 Sometimes it's very hard to get people to try new things. Always hope Ss and my own excitement spark growth! #learnlap

specialtechie Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A8: Maybe pick one teacher per grade level, switch "classes" like old school "round robin" to give them a taste? #learnlap

MWhiteMES Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

Great #LearnLAP chat tonight! Got to run but the ideas are spinning in my head. I see a student led #EdCamp in my near future.

CourtneyKofeldt Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A8: Have students backchannel the event and share what they are learning to a school hashtag- potentially has a global reach #learnlap

ronaldfisher Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

A? Actually a question could a Student-Led EdCamp be Theme Based, not like a science fair but using specific topics? #learnLap

mck2002 Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

This was my first #LearnLAP and it was a great one to jump in on! Thank you all so much!

ARutschke Apr 11 @ 8:56 PM EDT

@PaulSolarz @ChristinaMLuce @sandyrotto Last year, I struggled to keep my composure. IE: Topics inc divorce & sports leadership. #LearnLAP

craigyen Apr 11 @ 8:57 PM EDT

A8) Showcase what you're doing. Invite their students in to experience the student led edcamp #learnlap

TracyMailloux Apr 11 @ 8:57 PM EDT

A8 @CyrusPeirceMS had an Edcamp for our Ts during PD day in August to get ready for the year. So motivating and positive! #Learnlap

cdworrell Apr 11 @ 8:57 PM EDT

specialtechie Apr 11 @ 8:59 PM EDT

I hate that #learnlap and #edtechchat are at the same time, now I've got to go back and read all the great convos! Awesome as always!

sam_thomass2 Apr 11 @ 8:59 PM EDT

#learnlap A8 the school should put on a T edcamp for PD to intro them, then Ts can implement the pieces they love in their own class #rd3600

KimberlyOnak1 Apr 11 @ 8:59 PM EDT

A8: Find those who share common interests. Be brave and go for it! Seems so exciting that others will want to join #LearnLAP
