EduCon 2023

In just 5 short years, Edcamp has become an international phenomenon. People accredit this to autonomy, choice, and personalized PD but, the real driver behind the movement is a redistribution in power - decreasing the power of the hierarchy and distributing it more evenly across the community. Approaching professional development from this perspective has broad implications for schools. It opens opportunities for collaborative decision making, to learn through problems, co-create solutions, and to create true communities of practice that continually regenerate schools.

Building from the success of Edcamp, we will explore how a wider array of dialogic processes can be employed to move school from a community of learners to a community that learns.
