How would you like to go to summer Space Camp?

Better yet, how would you like to go to Space Camp with attendees from all over the world? With everyone collaborating on a creative project in a playful environment?

That’s exactly the opportunity which ShapingEDU is offering anyone who’d like to participate.

Oh–and it’s free, and happening virtually. The dates: June 21-23, for three half-day sessions for which you can register here.

ShapingEDU, created by Arizona State University, is a global community of passionate creatives. Their focus: coming up with ideas for positive change in education. And Stephanie Pierotti is ShapingEDU’s first-ever Director.

Annually, ShapingEDU hosts their “Global Virtual Summer Camp”, with interactive sessions where attendees dream together, then collaborate to make those dreams a reality. This year’s theme is “Space Camp”.

And Global Virtual Summer Camp is just one of ShapingEDU’s events aimed at uniting innovators to create a better, more accessible education system.

Stephanie talked about Space Camp,, what attendees can expect, and the ways ShapingEDU is “dreaming, doing and driving” to shape the future for lifelong learners.
