Tomorrow’s the final day for #IDEAcon 's Super Saver rate, our most discounted way to invest in staff PD.

You don’t need names now. You just need to commit to educator growth, even while federal Title II funding remains in limbo.

📅 Deadline: Aug 1 @ 11:59 PM CT ideail.org/IDEAcon26sup... #EduSky

Bold action beats uncertain funding. #IDEAcon Super Saver registration ends Friday 8/1 at 11:59 PM CT. Prioritize PD, equity, and educator joy without needing names just yet. Every badge is a stand for staff development, despite unjust Title II withholding.

Reflection was disco-ball-fun when @meaganmacdonald.bsky.social & @erikainka.bsky.social
presented @mirrortalk.ai at IDEAcon. Total thinking and learning bash! Not surprised to see @andrea-trudeau.bsky.social loving it.

“It was cool to look around and see what other people were doing.” - Bailey, a student who has presented at multiple conferences, including #IDEAcon, with her teacher on what it’s like presenting at a conference.

At #IDEAcon one of my favorite vendors there was
Makedo, a company founded in Australia. 🌏
Ironically they're not even that techie. 🤓
Love their focus on playful creativity.
Kids create and build with cardboard at school (or home) using the Makedo super cool tools.
