Unfortunately I did not manage to make the Scottish Learning Festival at the SECC this week. However, I was able to watch the Teachmeet Seminar live via Flashmeeting. Being a relative beginner in the use of video conferencing, I was surprised at how easy it was to become involved. I heard, and indeed watched, lots of interesting speakers, many of whom came from East Lothian. In addition, I was able to chat to various other teachers around not only Scotland but the world. It was great to meet these fellow educators and put faces to the names on their blogs.
