What is EduCon?
EduCon is both a conversation and a conference.
It is an educational innovation conference where we can come together to discuss the future and the now of schools. Every session will be an opportunity to discuss and debate ideas — from the very practical to the big dreams.

The Axioms
The guiding principles behind EduCon
- Our schools must be inquiry-driven, thoughtful and empowering for all members.
- Our schools must be about co-creating — together with our students — the modern citizen.
- Technology must serve pedagogy, not the other way around.
- Learning is networked.
- Schools must honor the lives our students lead today while preparing them for the lives they will lead tomorrow.
Please be sure to read the EduCon Code of Conduct.
