A Couple of RockStars Teach us how to ROCK

Earlier today was our second virtual eduConference (read about our first one, here), on the subject of “Turning Teachers into Rockstars.” We had two great presenters this time around, one by Kirsten Winkler titled “It’s a Long Way to the Top if you Wanna Rock’n Roll” (going over how to become a Rockstar Teacher), and one by Joseph Sunga of TeachStreet, titled “Empowering Teachers.” Very good presentations all around, and it was great to see people in the comments talking about how inspired they were after it was all over! You can’t ask for more than that from a presentation.

Thank you everyone who attended and participated in the discussion. We really look forward to the next eduConference, probably a month or two away, on a completely different subject. Feel free to send in your ideas for the next one in the comments below! See you next time, and thank you again!

  • Hey everyone! It was great again joining everyone on eduFire and the education world to talk about what we love to do, learn and teach! Thank you everybody for bearing with the audio issues we had, but hopefully it was well worth it.

    I hope Kirsten and I were informational for everyone and encouraged folks to become the rock stars they are. It's been great to see this first hand with our group of teachers at TeachStreet -- empowering them to turn a hobby into a business. Especially in this day in age, education should definitely be in the forefront of folks minds. Looking forward to the next one.

    Let's try to get "education across the nation!".


    Cheers,
    Joseph

  • So awesome to have you there, thanks for coming, and presenting, Joseph!
  • Hey guys,
    was a great eduCon. Thanks again, Koichi, for inviting me and thanks to the attendees. Was a great audience. Joe, your presentation was great!

    I would slightly change the topic into "education across the globe"

    See you,
    Kirsten
