#PhysEdSummit 2.0 is organised by PHYSEDagogy, an online community dedicated to promoting discussion about best practices in the modern physical education classroom. PHYSEDagogy started as a blog in March 2013 and has since grown into a community of educators looking to tap into the collective knowledge of the profession to exchange knowledge and explore new ideas. The idea of the #PhysEdSummit was to crowdsource a virtual conference and provide digital professional learning opportunities for PE professionals by sharing best practices. The first summit was held in October 2014.

This month's virtual conference will be divided into two 1-hour blocks. The first block will cover general topics and sessions, while the second one will consist of presentations and roundtable discussions of topics related to PE in elementary, middle schools and high schools. The topics discussed at the summit will include physical literacy, teaching games for understanding, Google Apps for Education, iPads in PE, adapted PE, standards based grading, assessment, and teacher evaluation.

All the sessions will be recorded and available on the PHYSEDagogy YouTube channel after the summit.
