Does anyone know of any conventions, conferences where social networking bods like us get together and share classroom practice?

I noticed that a whole raft of these things take place in the US it seems the UK is really lagging behind. Or am I just missing something that is happening somewhere? If I am please tell me where.... I want to join in!

Joanne:

I'd love to hold a Classroom 2.0 LIVE workshop in the UK. You can see more about them at www.classroom20wiki.com/live+workshops. We'd have to find a venue with wireless Internet and get the word out.

What do you think?

I think....go for it...lol... but Hey ..that's my enthusiastic nature I can't help myself. Now wireless internet, it depends how good you need it? Most hotels offer it now, so it isn't a problem. Trouble with hotels, they are expensive. The other option is to use a school to host the event. I am sure quite a few people have invested in mobile internet useage in the uK using the plug in usb type?

Anyway.....I am sure more people would want to share in this. I will twitter the discussion round and see if we get any takers.

I'd be interested. Maybe a Teacher's Centre would provide a venue or a Uni?
I'll be at NE London TeachMeet08 too. Maybe people who'll be there should meet up?
I'll pass the word on
