Initial Thoughts & Reactions: My initial thoughts are with the Global Ed Camp website they created, because I think it
truly was a great idea. I especially liked how they pointed out it removes the constraints of time zones or calendars. It
was amazing to see how many participants they had right from the start. I think taking this idea to the students was
also a great idea, through Global Edcamp Classrooms. It was amazing to see how many classrooms and students
participated! I would love to get my students and school involved in this, because connecting with the outside world is
a wonderful way to motivate our students, and help them follow their passions. If they can share with the world what
they know, and show what they are proud of, they will definitely strengthen their student agency.

globally. really helps to eliminate the issues with time restraints, schedules, or location. One of the most difficult challenges
faced with EdCamps is that they aren’t always nearby and it makes it difficult to attend when you aren’t able to
afford/have time to get there. I was shocked and excited to see how many educators participated, and I was
disappointed that I was just now learning about it. I think opening this idea up into your classroom is incredibly
innovative and exciting. Students will gain other perspectives on how/what they are learning along with having the
ability to personalize their learning.
Name:Kelly G.
Initial Thoughts & Reactions:Wow! My initial reaction is how awesome the people who facilitate and create these
things are! I believe digital EdCamp for teachers is a great idea. Often times teachers don’t want to attend EdCamps in
person due to timing, distance, and a plethora of other excuses, so making one available over many days and digital
platforms is a great idea. The idea of teachers being connected globally in order for their students to connect globally

goes pretty hand in hand, in my opinion. If I as the teacher am globally connected, I can bring those connections back
to my students.
