Last night I went along to Teachmeet Strathclyde at Jordanhill college, I had signed up a couple of days before and stuck my name down to talk about edutalk.info<\/a>.<\/p>\n I noticed there were nearly 70 folk signed up and quite a crowd was gathered eating cupcakes when I arrived. This was the first TeachMeet I’d attended when I had not really though much about it or had any involvement with before hand. The participants were mostly students which gave the meet a slightly different energy, slightly more formal and organised than some TeachMeets, the crowd was quietly energetic and motivated.<\/p>\n A couple of the usual<\/a> suspects<\/a> were in attendance but I didn’t know the vast majority of attendees.<\/p>\n As usual for teachmeets the presentations were all interesting, with lots of things I either nodded to or was completely surprised by. The compare Paul Campbell<\/a> kept everything running smoothly.<\/p>\n I was nice to have a round table break in the middle, I went to a Games Based learning table organised by Morven Skinnder<\/a>, Jen Deyenberg<\/a> was in the group and has extensive experience in gbl. I suspect learning in Jen’s infant class would be wonderful with or without the high tech additions as I can’t imagine an object or situation she could not animate with learning.<\/p>\n I’ll not go into details of the different presentations or the round table as I am currently chopping up the audio recording I took and posting to Edutalk<\/a> I had my two minutes talking about Edutalk, should have done 7 as I expect that most folk went huh; without the chance to listen, or see a demo. I am quite pleased with the slide though.<\/p>\n Edutalk is fairly pushing out the episodes at the moment, with the purpos\/ed<\/a> crew adding one a day for their #purposedfutured campaign<\/a> and the audio from TMLothians11 – TeachMeet Lothians & Borders 2011<\/a> which I am (with permission) reposting on Edutalk.<\/p>\n There is still plenty of room for move voices on Edutalk, see the How to EDUtalk<\/a> to find out how easy it is to join in.<\/strong><\/p>\n My photos from Teachmeet Strathclyde <\/a> on my John’s posterous<\/a> site and there is a Teachmeet strathclyde Edition – Stuff from the strathclyde Teachmeet<\/a> posterous waiting to be filled up.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Last night I went along to Teachmeet Strathclyde at Jordanhill college, I had signed up a couple of days before and stuck my name down to talk about edutalk.info.
