Previous EdCampPDX Participants and New Friends,

We hope you're planning to join us for the 5th EdCampPDX, the no-cost, unconference-style, collaborative, educator-driven, professional development day.

Saturday, November 17, 2012 

9:00 to 4:00 

at Meriwether Lewis Elementary School

4401 Southeast Evergreen
Portland, Oregon

Examples of sessions planned include some technology: 

• Using the iPad as a content creation tool and workflow solutions
• Using Google Hangouts for PD

Some not-technology:

• Facilitating change in your space
• Curing Motivational Deficiencies:We can stop the epidemic of control in schools that demotivates teachers and students
• Things that Suck

Some discussion about great teaching:

• The Challenge: What are 10 methodologies and values all classrooms should exhibit?  A conversation to help shift our organizational mindsets on teaching and learning.
• Problem/Project Based Learning (rumor has it that Susie Boss might just stop in!) 
• Leave your tech at the door

And finally, 

• The Saturday Puzzle
