This year has been wonderful for me in terms of meeting people face to face who I have either followed on Twitter or who have even inspired me to begin writing this blog in the first place. TeachMeet at the Scottish Learning Festival allowed me to meet a whole bunch of brilliant Scots amongst others, which was a great pleasure. With Amplified’08 and MirandoMod2 still to look forward to I hope that 2009 will be just as fruitful in terms of matching avatars to real faces.
TweetMeet Nottingham on Saturday 6th December 2008 is another opportunity to meet fellow edubloggers and teachers making the most of technology in their classroom. Perhaps TweetMeet could be classed as the informal younger brother of TeachMeet, but we are meeting in a pub so it has much the same origins. Take a look at the site and sign-up if you can make it. I am pleased that Doug Belshaw, Lisa Stevens and Jose Picardo are already enscribed on the list so I won’t be talking to myself.
