Add a reminder to your  

On the 5th Anniversary of Teachmeet, TeachmeetNE will be celebrating education once again at the beautiful Tyneside Cinema, TeachmeetNE will give educators from all sectors the opportunity to meet up with like minded individuals and share the best of what is happening in their classrooms. If technology tickles your interest or independent learning intrigues you then come along and share your ideas and experiences with others. Based in the Tyneside Bar and Digital Lounge; canapés and drinks will keep the creative juices flowing! Please feel free to bring along your laptop or iphone to share your resources. There will be free wifi and we would encourage anyone who blogs or Twitters to do so during the evening so our virtual friends can join in.

If you wish to attend, you need to sign up to one of the categories below to gain entry on the night. Problems? E-mail Chris Harte here. 

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 lead a conversation.

Learning conversations

At recent TeachMeets, not everybody who wished to present has been able to present. Similary, not everybody wishes to perform. So .... instead of doing a presentation, would you like to lead a conversation on a topic that's currently close to your heart? Perhaps it's an area where you have more questions than answers? We'll make space for these learning conversations to take place. Sign up below if you'd like to lead a conversation.

1. Grace Dunne (Education Assistant at Woodhorn Museum & Northumberland Archives) - Using Archives in the Classroom @gracedunne
2. Design principles at High Tech High - How do High Tech High staff collaboratively plan such high quality projects? How can we adapt this to our contexts through a pragmatic and optimistic lens?
