Q1: Lets get excited!!! #oklaed pic.twitter.com/0dQ0bhgnHj

— ErinBarnes (@ebarnes73) February 26, 2018

A1: Having that #awkwardmoment when you sit next to someone you've been #twitter following but never met in real life! #oklaed

— Jun Kim (@MPSTechnology) February 26, 2018

A1 – Uhm coffee, donuts, bacon, possible unicorn sightings (looking at you @meghanloyd!) I mean what else could someone want?

In all serious though I am looking forward to the interaction with and learning from all of the other great educators that are a part of #oklaed https://t.co/yUeRe9Takc

A2. I remember the first few, I was in the mindset to give more than to receive, but this time I may just sit and "receive" all day! #maybe #weshallsee
Oh, and I'm bringing my Queen with me too this time!

A2- I am on a quest for hope. Not finding it in so many of the places around my teaching experience right now. #EdCampOKC seems to be a gathering place of those really expecting great things in #oklaed

— ErinBarnes (@ebarnes73) February 26, 2018

A3 Vote with your feet…if the conversation isn't for you get up and find what works for you! No one is hurt or offended…this is a day for you to get what you need! #oklaed

— Jennifer Seitsinger (@room20awesome) February 26, 2018

A3: I can answer this! Get up and leave if you don’t like the session or if it doesn’t fit your specialty #oklaed

A4. It allows for voice + choice= Loyalty. PD should make Ts feel like professionals who can make decisions based on what we need to develop our T identities. We don’t need someone to dictate/prescribe those needs, so it allows for opportunity to self assess/reflect. #OKLAED https://t.co/tSp3ZJs57j

A6: it works because the sessions are centered around the PD we need… we can find our rockstars and beg them to get on the board and then we can go there!#oklaed https://t.co/YQtJT7Vkyj

A6 b/c it fits me. I stay engaged when I am able to decide what I want to learn. #oklaed

Q7:#oklaed pic.twitter.com/IcN20hff38

— ErinBarnes (@ebarnes73) February 26, 2018

A7.
1. Newbies: Find 3-5 people you've never seen before (whilst getting coffee/food) and introduce yourselves.
2. Old folks/ seasoned edcampers: Remember the first time you were alone at EdCamp, don't let the newbies feel that way. Invite them to lunch too.#sayhi #oklaed pic.twitter.com/NeykpiMYHa

— Andre Daughty (@andredaughty) February 26, 2018

A7 – Even if you are there for the first time, feel free to share your talents and knowledge. Sign up to present. It’s about passion, learning, and sharing. Not about expertise #oklaed

A8 – PBL in ELA classrooms, standards based grading, building relationships w/students #oklaed

— Shari Gateley (@ShariGateley) February 26, 2018

A8: I want to know how people use homework effectively. (I know, I know, the newest thing is to be against homework. Don’t @ me!) My pre-AP kiddos want to go to medical school someday. How do I prepare them for that without killing their love of reading??? #oklaed
