This past Saturday was the first EdCamp Louisiana and it was amazing! The photo above was taken afterwards of 4 of the 5 organizers – Valerie Burton<\/a>, Brian Mull<\/a>, myself, and Paula Naugle<\/a>. We waited too long to take the picture, so we are missing Carl Gaines.<\/p>\n

It really was a wonderful day and so many great conversations took place. There’s nothing better than being around inspiring, passionate educators and it was a bonus that these peeps are local! I led a session on digital storytelling tools, which was really fun. One of my gems of the day was meeting and talking to Tinashe Blanchet<\/a> — for me she’s one of those people that you just connect with and feel that they are a kindred soul. I adore her – she’s cute and loves all things cute, I mean come on!! She’s doing awesome things in her classroom and shared some great resources, including Canvas<\/a>, a learning management system that I’m very interested to learn more about. She also shared in a great session on QR Codes, which I definitely plan to dive into this school year.<\/p>\n

The most AWESOME thing about EdCamp was getting to meet such great people that are so close by. ISTE is amazing, but when I leave, I’m sad because we\u00c2\u00a0disburse throughout the country. Here I realized that we have a concentration of awesomeness in our state and we need to harness that and band together! We need experiences like this more often.<\/p>\n

EdCamp Louisiana…holla! Now get involved and go plan your own edcamp!<\/p>\n
