After attending this years MoodleMoot I couldnt help but think that as the Moodle community grows so does the diversity of the user base who attend. The natural progression of a piece of software with global appeal and a global user base.

 

There were many presentations to choose from and a generous handfull of keynote speeches across the two day event, most of which I found both informative and inspiring.

 

While there I met many people who I've been following on Twitter for some time now, I also met lots of new 'moodlers' with a wealth of experience - I always claim its impossible for one person to know everything there is to know about Moodle, just when you think you have a featured tied down someone pops up with a twist or turn on how they utilise the same functionality in a diverse or unique way.

 

I'd like TeachMeetMoodle to focus on the way Moodle is used in the Primary and Secondary Education sector.

 

I want to keep the detail brief at this stage, the TeachMeet should be about the people who attend and the exchanges that take place.

 

Brief Details:

 

  • I want the Meet to be informal and as accessible as possible
  • I'd like everyone who attends to take something away with them, that means making sure everyone is involved in some way (Give & Take)
  • focus on classroom practice and real use of Moodle features - plugins - extensions
  • I would like to bring our moodle tech / development staff and for them to meet other like minded moodle devs/techs
  • Can we code the sessions / attendees so that we can connect with edumoodlers of interest
  • BectaX speed dating was a good tool?? 

 

  • Add your own thoughts here....

For anyone who wants to come the best option is public transport (the College is a 2 minute walk from High Street Kensington tube station) - anyone who wants to bring a car needs to email me (Nadeem n.ahmad@heythrop.ac.uk) first and will need the sat nav post code of W8 5BU.

 

I want to say a big thank you to all of you who offered to host the event or put me in touch with people who could offer a venue, it was very much appreciated.

 

  • We (Hamble College) would host, however very south?
  • Why not try a Saturday? Really want to attend but always tricky on school nights (and with kids) @gideonwilliams (I like the idea of holding it on a saturday @moodledan)  
  • How does Hertfordshire grab people??    
  • Sheffield West CLC - we are interested in developing Moodle as a resource for our schools and for teacher training - we'd be happy to host it if you're looking for a more central location! Dave Gibbs (dgibbs@nwsclc.net)  
  • If you're happy for FE colleges to be involved, MidKent College is a potential host   
  • How about a Moodle section at TeachMeet - Hampshire for those who are here in the south?

 

Basic rules for the TeachMeet:

 

  • Micro-presentations are strictly seven minutes long, nano-presentations two minutes long.
  • Please make sure that what you're showing has actually been done in your classroom or a classroom of a colleague - this isn't blue skies, this is right here, right now stuff.
  • No sales pitches <-- I personally feel strongly about this point
