Post meeting update (27 Feb 2011)

 

Mike McSharry (@mikemcsharry) created an easy to navigate page with all the recordings from the presentations that took place at TeachMeet Midlands 11.

 

Oliver Quinlan (@oliverquinlan)  used posterous (with amazing efficiency!) to blog the presentations on the day and include some useful links to resources mentioned by presenters.

 

In combination with the videos, these are great resources for sharing with colleagues who couldn't attend. Perhaps they will inspire them to come to a TeachMeet next time around!

 

 

Free goody bag for every attendee plus the chance to win lots of fab raffle prizes worth over £1000!

 

This event is being organised by Emma Dawson (@stupi de vanzare), Mike McSharry (@mikemcsharry) and Nickie Robertshaw. Please feel free to contact us if you have any queries.
 

 

 

What is TeachMeet?

 

 

Learn something new, be amazed, amused and enthused.  This is an informal gathering of those curious about teaching and technology. Anyone can share great ideas they've trialled in their classrooms, ask important questions or simply sign up to take part in learning conversations.  Everyone is welcome to join in: teachers from all types of schools, teaching all subjects and age groups.  The main part of TeachMeet is hearing stories about learning from teachers.  It is a chance for teachers to hear ideas from each other  and be inspired by colleagues, along with a whole bucket load of networking to boot!  

 

When and Where?

TeachMeet Midlands will be taking place on 19th February 2011, 1pm - 4.30pm (including refreshments фотошоп скачать бесплатно), Sherrier Primary School, Bitteswell Road (car park via New Street), Lutterworth, followed by a TeachEat afterwards for anyone wishing to attend.

 

By Car: Lutterworth is just off Junction 20 of the M1.

By train/bus: There is no train to Lutterworth so you will need to get a train to either Leicester, Rugby or Hinckley and then catch a bus/take a taxi. The No.84 runs every 30 minutes from Leicester city to Lutterworth.

 

 

 

What can you do?

You can come along to chat, meet new people, or give a seven minute talk, a two minute nano presentation or listen and be inspired.

Presentation Rules

 

What are the rules for this Teachmeet? 

 

You can either do a 7 minute or 2 minute presentation. You can use whatever presentation format you want including PowerPoint, keynote, prezi, slide rocket, 280 slides, you could just talk, show something from the web, hold up a poster or you could sing a song!

 

The important thing is that you get your message across and you will only get one minute set up time.

 

Be prepared for technical difficulties and be ready to wing it on the day! That’s what makes Teachmeet exciting!
