What is a 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!

Every person attending will go home with a free goody bag, which will include a copy of Primary First (the journal from NAPE) and amazing goodies from BrainPOP UK, Daydream Education, Rising Stars, and Vital.

Isn't that cool? Did I mention you'll get free food too...

Presentation Rules

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.
