    IDEAcon 2023 - Victoria’s Top 5 “Know Before You Go” Tips

    by Victoria Thompson

    I attended my first IDEAcon in 2022 and was instantly hooked. I had a fantastic time presenting, connecting, and learning from people. This is a “must attend” conference for me: the attention to detail of the events, participant service, and session content is outstanding. In fact, I love it so much that my wife made me an annual pass (which I plan on bringing with me this year)!

    You may be wondering what to expect, what sessions to attend, or even what the environment is like. If you’ve never attended an IDEAcon before, this article is for you! Here are my top 5 “know before you go” tips for IDEAcon 2023.

    1. Check out the website beforehand to see if there’s any sessions that pique your interest. The IDEAcon 2023 website is super informative and gives a view of who is presenting and what they are presenting on, as well as several strands of knowledge. IDEAcon is a conference that has thousands of attendees with roles that range from IT specialists, educators, instructional coaches, school leadership, and more–you’re bound to find something that catches your eye! Previewing which sessions you’d like to attend may also help you plan your conference schedule better. There are also virtual/on demand sessions that you can view if you cannot attend IDEAcon in person. My in-person sessions this year focus on using data to drive positive school solutions, equity in instructional coaching, and teaching students to research in mathematics.

    2. Make time to connect with people outside of sessions and keynotes. I attend several conferences each year and I’m always blown away at the presence of community at IDEAcon. It seemed like at every avenue I was running into people I had met the day before, seeing people who I had met in sessions, and meeting new folks who were willing to introduce themselves and get to know more about them. Not only that, but we would make conscious efforts to find shared time to meet up and follow through with seeing each other again. Nearly every evening we would all be grabbing dinner together or meeting up in the lobby of the hotel to chat, and every morning we could reconvene and grab breakfast together. We have also stayed connected after the conference via texting, video calls, and seeing each other at other conferences. There is very much an emphasis on establishing connections at IDEAcon, which is something that doesn’t happen at every conference. These are now friends that I look forward to seeing every year.

    3. Don’t skip out on the Exhibit Hall. If you’ve never been to an expo hall at a conference before, it’s amazing–education companies and organizations are there to meet you, speak with you, tell you a little bit more about what they can offer, and often have swag bags and gifts. The IDEAcon Exhibit Hall is no different and gives you opportunities to connect with people from various education companies and organizations. There are also activities that you can participate in at the Exhibit Hall.

    4. The IDEA Illinois staff is friendly–introduce yourself to them! IDEA Illinois is known for their service and hospitality. If you see one of their staff or one of their volunteers, introduce yourself! They enjoy meeting people who are there and seeing who is part of the conference.

    5. Stay connected after the conference. IDEA Illinois has so many ways for you to stay connected after the conference, as well as throughout the year. For example, did you know that you can sign up to be a member of IDEA Illinois for free–even if you are not a citizen of the state of Illinois? I joined when I lived in Seattle and have retained my membership now that I am in Florida. They also have many events that you can participate in throughout the course of the year that range from wellness journeys to webinars to playgrounds and much more. And of course, stay connected with them on Twitter at @IDEAIllinois and on LinkedIn at Illinois Digital Educators Alliance.

    Sick Of It Day
    By Dr. Brigitte Garth-Young
    IDEA Governing Board Member

    Back in the early 1990's, there was a song entitled, "Funk Dat!" by Sagat. The song was from his LP "The World According to Sagat". Sagat was at capacity! He was frustrated about everything, no matter how big or small. And every time he got upset, he would say, "Funk Dat!” During this time, you couldn't say that on the radio, so they replaced Funk with Umph. Therefore, the phrase "umph dat!" is what we would say to express our frustration with family, siblings, school, church, friends, jobs, what we had for dinner, anything! Check out the video!

    Now, 28 years later, I can fully understand and feel what he's saying as I fight adultitis. What is adultitis? According to the Escape Adulthood website, adultitis is a common condition occurring in people between the ages of 21–121, marked by chronic dullness, mild depression, moderate to extremely high stress levels, a general fear of change, and, in some extreme cases, the inability to smile. People can appear aimless, discontent, and anxious about many things. Onset can be accelerated by an excess burden of bills, overwhelming responsibilities, or a boring work life. Generally, many of us suffer with this and didn't know there was a name for it. 

    The founders of Escape Adulthood, Jason and Kim Kotecki, have an entire website dedicated to adultitis and have a plethora of ideas on how to combat it. Jason had just sent a recent email to members about listening to your inner check engine light. He gave the analogy of having a car, and your engine light comes on. Oftentimes, we would ignore it by putting a piece of black electrical tape over the illuminating light. When you do this, there could be a serious underlying problem with the car that must be addressed. He compared the car with how we ignore physical symptoms when our "engine light" comes on.

    What I am recommending that you do if you are silently suffering are the following:

    • First, take the tape off the illuminating engine light and begin to analyze what you are feeling.
    • Sometimes, all you may need is a soothing bath, meditation, music, or a pig-out session of your favorite food (without the guilt).
    • Adopt a rescue animal for emotional support. (I have my pup SPYCE. He's a charm.)
    • Say, "Umph Dat!" to release some frustrations, so that things aren't pent-up.
    • If you know that the job is stressing you out, take a few sick-of-it-days! We also call these mental health days.
    • If you see a pattern with job related stress, you may want to consider a career change.
    • Ease up on calendar commitments, spend more time with the family, or treat yourself to the spa.
    • If none of the above is working, consider seeking medical attention from your physician or a therapist.

    Don't be afraid to peel back that black electrical tape on your "check engine light". See what it is trying to tell you and let it lead the way towards wellness. Say, "Umph Dat!" Allow yourself to be sick and tired of being sick and tired and get a break!

    Ponder this: What is your go to when you get "sick-of-it"? I'd love to hear about it. Please share your thoughts.

    Supporting Language Learners with Book Creator

    By Ramona Towner

    I first started using Book Creator in the fall of 2013. The app had not been out very long at that point. It was appealing to have a digital book format for students to use to create their own stories. 

    The user interface was simple, clean and easy to use. Book Creator has used teacher and student feedback and continued to upgrade their app as any good ed tech company should.


    We are all language learners. That is how we approached writing the book Supporting Language Learners with Book Creator. The 14 strategies that we share in the book are good for your English Language learners, your IEPed students and all the diverse learners in your classroom. Simply, these strategies are good for all learners. Book Creator is an app that allows students to access all 4 language domains, reading, writing, speaking and listening to create, read, listen to, and publish content on their iPad or in their web browser. I like Book Creator because it is easy enough to use that any teacher or student can get started even if they’re not comfortable with using technology, but it has enough bells and whistles that a high school senior could really create some amazing content!

    I like Book Creator because users can:

    Here are a few examples from the book. Imagine what it would be like to start school in a new country where you don’t speak the language. New comers are able to use their own creativity to make a book. They can take pictures and/or video of their new school. They can then record their own voice in both their native language and their new language to describe their surroundings.

    Idea number 5 from the book, students can create a list of cognates, or a personal dictionary. Language learners can keep digital lists of new words or academic vocabulary, add pictures or videos for support, hear the correct pronunciation (Read to Me) and record their own voice and definition or description in a way that makes sense to them.


    Use Book Creator to store videos of lessons using TPR (total physical response). TPR is used to create meaning through motion. Comprehension is the first step to language acquisition, not word production. A student can record different TPR moves used in class by his teacher and classmates for both common phrases and academic vocabulary. These non-verbal movements allow the language learning student to participate in a non-threatening way while listening to new vocabulary being pronounced correctly. They will be learning meaning through a physical movement that activates retention.

    Math isn’t just numbers. The rest of the world uses the metric system. Newcomers need to learn the names of our customary units of measure and depending on the grade level can compare them to metric units of measure. They can do this by using pictures and recording their voice. Here is an example of a measurement book made by a 5th grade student. 

    Book Creator allows students to use their own creativity to create their own books. They are more engaged in creating a project that demonstrates their thinking and understanding of their new language. The multimedia components available in the app support all types of learners and hits multiple modalities of learning.

    The Promise of a Garden: From School Garden Interest to School-wide Initiative

    Dr. Jennifer Williams, Executive Director, Take Action Global, International Educator Community and Dr. Mary Meadows, Head of School, Andrews Academy, St. Louis, Missouri

    Over the past several months, our team at Take Action Global has had the opportunity to join in conversations with IDEA community members to discuss ways classrooms can take action for the planet through sustainability and environmental education. With classrooms exploring climate across the curriculum and across grade levels, we were excited to sit down with Dr. Mary Meadows, Head of School of Andrews Academy in St. Louis, to learn more about how her school has taken on the climate crisis and given back to their local and global community through a school-wide school garden initiative.  

    Jennifer: In our organization at Take Action Global, we have a mission of climate education for all. With many schools eager to take on a school-wide initiative, we’d love to learn from the process and steps you and your community have taken over the past few years. What prompted your early interest in climate action education? Did you face any barriers in the beginning? 

    Mary: Our interest in outdoor education, sustainability, and transitioning to student-centered teaching and learning led to the onset of a project-based learning initiative. Time constraints and lack of gardening experience initially presented challenges for our school community, however our understanding of the benefits of young children having access to the outdoors and its relevance to developing knowledge of and concern for the environment was undoubtedly foundational to our success. 

    Jennifer: In your role as Head of School, I know you have committed to guiding and supporting teachers and students throughout the process. Do you have any top tips for other school leaders interested in starting and sustaining a climate action project such as a school garden? 

    Mary: We prioritize our school garden as an essential initiative of our school’s mission. Here are a few key aspects of the program: 

    • Aim to keep a consistent schedule to allocate time for project initiatives
    • Assignment of all faculty members to specific grade level classes for the year-long initiative
    • Project selection guided by student interests related to the school garden and sustainability
    • Research efforts supported by community connections
    • Ongoing documentation, reflection, and sharing of the projects throughout the duration of the initiative with a year-end assembly and expo

      Jennifer: We are excited to welcome your school Andrews Academy as one of our Founding Climate Action Schools for 2022-2023. As you are three years into your own school initiative, what can schools new to taking on sustainability programs look forward to? 

      Mary: We recently completed our third school year of our school garden program, which involved the addition of a stewardship component, connecting each grade level’s initiative with a related community need. Emphasis on sustainability resulted in renaming our efforts to what is now known in the Andrews Academy school community as Sustainable Development and Stewardship (SDS). We look forward to a transformative year as a Climate Action Schools participant.


      Thanks to Dr. Mary Meadows for sharing about her school’s adventures in learning and action for the planet. To learn more about Andrews Academy, you can visit https://www.andrewsacademy.com

      Every Coach Deserves a Coach

      by Jennifer Waldvogel

      Snow was falling, Thanksgiving break was peeking around the corner, and my role as instructional coach had officially been stuck in flux for the past year and a half. Prior to the pandemic, I never had trouble finding purpose in my role. Whether it was mentoring new teachers, building our blended program, running PD sessions, or working alongside teachers to try something new, I believed in my work and I felt happy as a coach. But like so many educators, the pandemic blew that sense of self right out of the water. Suddenly, every day was triage and no one had the time or the capacity for professional development, growth projects, innovation, or co-teaching. It was survival mode, and with that came a new demand for “making it work”. I found myself furiously onboarding digital tools, creating structures to support online & hybrid instruction, teaching part-time in a middle school classroom, and working without my team. Everything I loved about coaching was put on pause. I was drained, and so were my colleagues. 

      I was looking for more. I was looking for a spark, and so when IDEA offered their first Coaching Academy in November 2021, I jumped at the opportunity. To meet in person again with fellow Illinois coaches, to talk about our jobs and find inspiration sounded promising. I grabbed two of my teammates and we signed up. On the morning of November 11th, we walked into the Professional Development Alliance in Joliet, and I immediately saw faces I recognized. Coffee wafted through the air, chatter filled the session rooms, and it felt so good to be in the energy. Session to session, I felt renewed. Coaching is all about filling the cups of educators so they can fill the cups of students. Coaching Academy was the perfect refill. Zuica Donev helped me understand human motivation, offering strategies to tap into what drives teachers and students. Lindsay Zilly sent me into a world of games, icebreakers, and playfulness, offering methods to engage educators. Kim Darche helped me practice the art of conversation, a reminder that simple connection goes a long way. Michael Earnshaw painted a whole new picture of school climate, one that placed joy and personal connection front and center. I left the day remembering how much I loved coaching, excited to be a better support for the teachers in my district. On the drive home, my teammates and I shared insights from our sessions and made plans. 

      IDEA’s Coaching Academy caught me at a pivotal moment in my career. I was looking for answers, wondering if my role had value, wondering if I still wanted to be a coach. Talking with fellow coaches in sessions, chatting with conference directors Lindsay Zilly and Amber Heffner in the hallway, and listening to the advice of the caring educators presenting was a truly bright moment during the winter of the toughest year of my educator career. So if you’re feeling anything like me, a little lost and a lot tired, find a bright spot in this year’s Coaching Academy because every coach deserves a coach.


      IDEA’s Coaching Academy is now the Conference for Educational Coaches (CEC)! Join IDEA and fellow coaches for two days of in-person or online learning!

      But this was just a name change. It’s still the same fantastic conference offered by IDEA, in partnership with TCEA, for anyone and everyone who is leading professional development and/or coaching and supporting educators.
