Our KS UNconference is only 31 days away and we’re getting really excited about it!\u00a0 What we’re wondering is if everyone knows what an UNconference is.\u00a0 An UNconference is really like an Edcamp<\/a> and luck for us, Simple K12<\/a> has come up with a wonderful guide<\/a> on how to create an Edcamp.\u00a0 We wanted to share a table from the guide that compares an UNconference to a Traditional Conference.<\/p>\n
