Guest bloggers

Now that the conference is over, there is plenty still to engage with. If there were workshops that you missed out on you can find the materials on the Learning@School website. In a few weeks time the videos of the keynotes and spotlight presenters will also be placed on the website. Many people have already started their reflections. I used the Google blog search to find mentions of the conference and below are a few of the links.

What were the highlights for you? What was your ‘aha’ moment? We would love to hear of them in the comments.

Strengths: Networking, breakout sessions, yummy food, catching up with other like-minded people, nice venue and excellent organisation

Weaknesses: Drawn out key note sessions made for long days, limited places to sit down, eat and/or relax, diners had to pay for beer

So What’s: Work to keep key note time frame shorter, use the Trust Room as a blogger’s cafe etc, beer on the tables too:)

Feed Forward: A fantastic conference. We now plan to work smarter and have as many cluster and ancillary staff as possible from PeaK-ICT attend the conference. http://peak-ict.wikispaces.com
