I never went to the BETT education exhibition at Olympia when I worked in institutionalised education but I went yesterday. The main reason was to attend TeachMeet08 where lots of interesting people would be gathering and presenting, including some old colleagues, people only known online through various networks, and Linda’s twitter friends from the scottish edubloggers. I was asked to video Drew’s presentation including the use of a Mobius strip so here it is.
There’s also a recording of the Flashmeeting which can be replayed
BETT itself was pretty dire, with all the usual vendors trying to flog their old technology, unlikely promises and crap content to the people who get to spend money in the education sector.

Just watching this again, I can’t help admiring the ability to talk and operate a pair of scissors at the same time. I guess teachers get a lot of practice at this kind of thing.
