Pembroke Dock Community School, Tuesday 17th August 2.30pm - 6pm
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!
Here is a video from BrainPop about Teachmeet. It is hosted on Youtube so if you're in school, you'll just see a white space here.
Teachmeet Pembs will be happening on Tuesday 17th August 2010 at Pembroke Dock Community School, Pembroke Dock - 2.30pm - 6pm (ish)

Let's keep it all together and use the following tag for all posts, images, tweets and presentations to do with TeachMeet #TMBev
You can come along to chat, meet new people, or give a seven minute talk, a two minute nano presentation or lead a conversation.
As with all Teachmeets, we are dependant on our sponsors for a venue, refreshments, wifi, equipment and other costs.
What are the rules for this Teachmeet?
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!
