If you are considering attending ISTE 2010 in Denver, CO this June, I hope you consider this great pre-conference experience, the Pre-ISTE 2010 StoryKeepers Camp. While ISTE is a large, sometimes overwhelming experience, an event like this offers personalized, hands-on learning within a supportive community. It’s a great way to ease into the conference, and get the widest range of professional development.
StoryKeepers camp is run by the fabulous Bernajean Porter. The camp is 3 days right before ISTE, June 24-26, 2010.
Pre-ISTE2010 StoryKeepers Camp is a a one-of-kind artistic, learning adventure meant to lift the spirits, imaginations and skills of educators. Participants will not only be ready to take the art of digital storytelling back to their students and other colleagues but also be prepared to guide the reading/writing of ANY multi-media communication.
Expect to make new friends, learn a lot, have fun and leave enchanted with new skills for creating future storytelling!

And if you decide to come to Denver for the StoryKeepers Camp, you can also come to another wonderful pre-conference event – The Constructivist Celebration. StoryKeepers Camp is Thursday-Saturday, the Celebration is Sunday and will be over in plenty of time to attend the opening events Sunday night at ISTE.
Enjoy them both!

This sounds like a great experience to attend. I only wish that some of these special events weren’t so expensive. My district is already breaking the bank by sending three of us to the conference, there’s no way that we could afford another learning opportunity – no matter how sweet it is. As for me, with a cost of $375, the cost is too much for this newly wed to afford.
Hi Scott,
I think in many cases you get what you pay for. This camp is an intensive, hands on experience with a leader that has an international reputation. Of course, when it comes out of your pocket, every penny counts, but really, this is not “expensive.”
