The event was hosted by MindValley. It was nice to see educators, parents and even kids. Yes the blur that you see on the picture is actually kids running around.

Rames sharpens his Photoshop skills by working on photographs of himself and turning them into another person/situations. Here is changing himself into Damo. See more of his work at http://www.ramesstudio.com. On twitter: @ramesstudios

This being Malaysia, we had food too. One of the participants had prepared this for the educamp. Thanks also to Wu Han (@Ngeow) and Mindvalley for hosting us.

Malaysians hold their Educamps on a weekday evening, I think this is a good ideas as it allows for a more diverse attendance. My own presentation was on how I see travel as a learning experience and what else is happening in South East Asia with similar learning events.

I also found it interesting that the educamp has folks from the Malaysian iPhone developer community attending. That is Chris, well known iOS developer,  talking about app builders spending time with end users and how it will help them make better products.
