Edtechroundup is a weekly online meeting between teachers and educators. It is open to all and the conversations take place via Flashmeeting. The discussions are about education and teaching with a particular focus on the use of ICT.

You can find the links to future meetings on the Edtechroundup wiki. You can also watch / listen to the previous conversations there if you have missed any. There is also a Twitter page which allows you to keep up to date with the latest meetings and events. Why not take a look and get involved in the meetings yourself?

A Teachmeet is a conference organised for teachers, by teachers. They are much less formal than other conferences that you might have been to, allowing teachers to share (and celebrate) their own classroom experiences with each other.

I’ve never been to a Teachmeet before, so I’m very excited to be attending my first one in a few weeks… on Friday 18th September at The Hop Farm, Paddock Wood. The event is free and takes place from 7pm until 9pm. If you’re involved in education and you’re able to get there, come along!
Find out more (and sign up if you plan to come) on the wiki… and if you’re able to give a presentation, add yourself to the list!
