Many teachers from all over and a couple of students from the Science Leadership Academy will be reflecting on our experience at this weekend’s SMASHING! conference, Educon 2.2.

If you were there, please join us via Skype (even if for just a short time.) We hope to rotate as many voices in and out of our live webcast as possible!

Come tell us what you are thinking about now, having attended Educon. Or come learn what all the fuss is about.

EduCon 2.2

What is Educon?

EduCon 2.2 is both a conversation and a conference.

And it is not a technology conference. It is an education conference. It is, hopefully, an innovation conference where we can come together, both in person and virtually, to discuss the future of schools. Every session will be an opportunity to discuss and debate ideas — from the very practical to the big dreams.

The Axioms

Guiding Principles of EduCon 2.2

  1. Our schools must be inquiry-driven, thoughtful and empowering for all members
  2. Our schools must be about co-creating — together with our students — the 21st Century Citizen
  3. Technology must serve pedagogy, not the other way around
  4. Technology must enable students to research, create, communicate and collaborate
  5. Learning can — and must — be networked
