nErDcamp is Coming to Northern New England!

Educators, do you have a desire to learn more about literacy?  Do you love spending time with other passionate educators and sharing ideas?  Do you want an experience that will fit your needs? Then nErDcampNNE is for YOU!  

Educators from all grade levels and content areas are invited to participate in the first nErDcamp Northern New England.  This is an "unconference" based on the edcamp model.  This nErDcamp was inspired by Colby Sharp and colleagues who organized the first nErDcamp in Battle Creek, Michigan in July 2013.
