Weekend Reading: Educon 2.1
Last week I introduced a new series of occasional posts regarding Weekend Reading. These brief entries are designed to highlight opportunities (primarily in the form of recently published books, articles, and other digital content) that foster professional growth. This weekend’s feature breaks that format mold a bit but is truly special; Educon 2.1.
Hosted by Chris Lehmann and the Science Leadership Academy, Educon 2.1 is a “conference and a conversation” that begins today and runs through Sunday, January 25. As described on the Educon 2.1 homepage,
“[Educon] 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.”
Each of the conference sessions will include a “conversation website” with session notes and a session recording. Although you may not be attending in person, you can engage in any/all of the presentations from afar. Whether you join a live session or view archived content, I would encourage you to spend a little this weekend enjoying all that Educon 2.1 has to offer.
