  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.

  1256484170_twitter_02.png 1256484162_facebook_02.png 1256484938_delicious.png
  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.

  So, if you are looking for a fun website, or you’re just incredibly bored, try you hand at one of these web activities:
