Part of the  EduWiki Conference 2014 (Wikimedia UK ), or at least the fringe

 

What is TeachMeet

Learn something new, be amazed, amused and enthused. This is an informal gathering of those curious about teaching and learning. Anyone can share great ideas they've trialled in their classrooms, ask important questions or simply sign up to take part in learning conversations. Education professionals from all sectors are welcome to take part.

 

TeachMeetEduWiki is something different, a chance for the TeachMeet community to come together with the Wikipedia and Wikimedia EDU conference in a TeachMeet.

Codebase in Edinburgh, at 3 Lady Lawson St.

 

 

 

The Main Event

 

You can talk about anything that has inspired you or is working well in class. Your focus could be a tool, strategy or topic, or some enquiry or collaboration you were/are involved in.

 

The one rule here is NO SELLING.

 

Let's also agree not to cause any PowerPoint-induced comas. And remember, technology may not always be your friend. Set up time is one minute for each presentation.

 

You do not have to present anything, you can always be an Enthusiastic Lurker (TeachMeet speak for attendee!)

 

The rough outline for the night is below. All timings will be sorted out nearer the time!

 

1. Refreshments, then introduction
2. 7-minute micropresentations & 2-minute nanopresentations
3. Round table workshops / discussions 
4. 7-minute micropresentations & 2-minute nanopresentations

 

Seven-minute micropresentations

 

▴ ▾ Your talk must be about real learning activities. It must be practical and applicable Given we may have Wikipedians without classroom experience it must be about something interesting to classroom teachers.   If it is online please add links to your presentation or work to the title (this will speed things up on the night).
