In response to Q3 from 7-27-16 Blab "How might we build character in our students school wide?"
Students could envision, create and run their own EdCamp for the entire school.
--Inspired by #Edumatch Tweet & Talk 53 Student Perspectives on Technology. The students were very inspiring - full of ideas, insights and zest -truly reflective of their growth mindset.
Additional inspiration: Brainstorm Community Action Voxer group has been sharing ideas and resources around a similar concept. This blogpost by Glenn Robbins Is Student Voice Truly Heard in Schools? is full of action points. He talks about how his school has implemented a daily EdCamp period. At the bottom of the blog are some other related links including a short student-created video about the daily EdCamp period.
