Econ Camp 2021
What is it?
Econ Camp is an annual event for high school teachers. It provides an excellent opportunity to learn and network with fellow economic educators in a relaxed and engaging environment. No financial cost to you!
October is Economic Education Month! AND to celebrate, ICEE and friends really wanted to be able to welcome you to Econ Camp 2021 in person.
Unfortunately, we can’t do that. Instead, we are presenting you the opportunity to join us and your fellow economic educators across the state virtually in Econ Camp sessions online.
No, it is not our preference to move virtually (s’mores don’t translate well digitally), but it our hope these sessions provide the chance to update your teaching tool kit, and catch up with your colleague from other schools.
Register HERE for one or more sessions!
When: October 21 – 27
Where: All sessions on Zoom
When: Most sessions begin at 4:30 pm ET.
