This is my presentation for Teachmeet North at StAugustines, Brookvale on Wednesday 21st March, 2012. Sometimes my basket overflows with amazing resources. Hence, my love of pearltrees (social bookmarking) and sharing resources with each other. The above powerpoint was joined with a previous post of the International teachmeet present.me on PEARLTREES (social bookmarking) Click here to view.

  4. Culminated in the 2nd International teachmeet hosted by @abromz  and @BartVerswijvel on   Saturday night 8pm AEST (reflections on the first international teachmeet organised by Arjana and Bart can be found here)

You can visit the International teachmeet wiki by clicking here.   22 presenters from 15 countries presented on Adobe pro connect in a webinar.  Bart created the video below:

An aspect of Teachmeet that I personally find rewarding are the relationships that are formed with fellow educators.  Secondly, the introduction of various resources and web tool, excites me.  On Saturday night @ShellTerrell mentioned this site Present.me which she heard at another teachmeet via @ElindaGjondedaj  You can view my International teachmeet presentation using Present.me, below.
