I've been very lucky to have been part of many different EdTech Communities over the years. From my time spent with amazing educators at Adobe, Google, Raspberry Pi, Sphero, TED-Ed, and my first EdTech Community, Evernote, I've loved how you get what you put into a community. It can be what you need it to be when you want it to be. I've taken all of these experiences I use them to help me craft the community experience for educators in the SchoolAI Community.
One of the things I have loved from the different communities was the effort to give the community members a platform to share their story. There is so much we can all learn from each other, but educators are not always given the chance to share or they do not have the ability to attend a conference and share their story. Sometimes the keynote circuit is the same few names and it can be tough to break into those conversations. That's why I have started the SchoolAI Lightning Talks.
Open to any educator who has an idea worth sharing, I want to give as many educators as possible a chance to share something that matters to them. You can find all of the details here and the submission page here. Do not let "I'm sure everyone already knows this." or "It probably doesn't make that big of a difference." stop you from sharing. Do not let the imposter syndrome take over and prevent you from sharing your idea. If you have any questions, feel free to send me an email at nicholas@schoolai.com or find me on my socials. @TheNerdyTeacher
Hugs and High Fives to everyone!
