A concise and practical guide to implementing and participating in the exciting new form of professional development, Edcamps. I had been toying with this concept for a while, so this guide was invaluable in figuring out the nuts and bolts of putting it together. Teacher friends, keep an eye out for an Alpine School District Edcamp later this fall!
