REGISTRATION IS NOW AVAILABLE! EdCampOKC 2020 will be Saturday, February 29, 2020 at Southeast Middle School in Oklahoma City. A 1 page printable PDF about the conference is available – Please share us with others!
An EdCamp is a free “un-conference” for educators to share ideas, collaborate and network together. EdCamps are based on the BarCamp and TeachMeet conference models. The EdCamp Foundation supports EdCamps worldwide like ours. First thing in the morning we “build the board,” inviting participants to suggest topics for discussion / conversation sessions. Then we have 2 morning sessions and 2 afternoon sessions, with an “app smackdown” immediately following lunch which is on your own. Check out our EdCampOKC 2020 schedule for more details.
The 3.5 minute video (from December 2018) “Edcamp: Empowering Educators Worldwide” provides an excellent overview of the EdCamp professional development experience and philosophy:
This 2 minute video from EdCampOKSDE in Oklahoma City in July 2015 also gives a good overview of what makes EdCamps such great learning events for educators. EdCampOKSDE (facilitated by EdCampOKC organizers working with OKSDE staff) was the largest EdCamp ever in the United States (as far as we know) with over 900 participants!
Maps and map links for EdCampOKC 2020 will be available on our Schedule page. Also watch this video from EdCampTulsa in March 2014 to learn more about what makes EdCamp awesome. Anyone is welcome to volunteer and help with EdCampOKC. Contact one of our organizers if you’d like to get involved!
