TeachMeet Tablet is intended for:

 

• people already using tablet devices in education who want to share what they are doing, and learn how to use them more effectively;
• people who would like to use tablet devices in education but are not sure where to start;
• people who are interested in learning and teaching!

TeachEat

 

As Esquire House no longer accept bookings, we shall not be organising a table in advance, but anyone who wants to head over to The Esquire House (Wetherspoons) for something to eat or a drink/coffee after TMTablet is more than welcome (that's where I'll be having my dinner, that's for sure - Tuesday is Steak Night)

 

It is expected that each person will pay for their own meal and drinks as it is unlikely that sponsorship will cover this cost.

 

The venue is Esquire House, 1487 Great Western Road, Glasgow, G12 0AU.
