Informal Education Networks - Follow Up Meeting

Details

http://photos2.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/d/8/2/e/event_196495342.jpegThis is our second meeting looking at how we develop informal networks of learning - which we are doing in a practical way. This group will take shape according to the interests of the people who get involved, and we will map out what we explore.

You are equally welcome if you are new to this group or if you were with us at the first meeting The 21st Century – An Age of Informal Learning and Learning Networks (https://www.meetup.com/21stCenturyNetwork/events/89006142/) Some follow-up discussions are spilling over from the first meeting into the "How was the Meetup?" space.

At our first meeting we discovered wide-ranging interests regarding learning and we went on to explore three of them in more depth. This second meeting will provide a chance to continue those discussions and to begin new ones.

At the first meeting some people suggested new house meetings and others study circles so this group could become one way of establishing yet more house meetings and study groups to supplement the work of GlobalNet21

http://photos3.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/c/a/2/8/event_175851752.jpegThe session will again be led by Pamela McLean - described by one of her friends as an online learning and collaboration explorer. She also introduces people and helps them to do useful things - learning a lot in the process and sharing what she has learned. She usually collaborates under the name Dadamac - http://www.dadamac.co.uk/index.html

Some discussion topics may only last for one or two meetings, others will turn into independent study circles, and thus our learning network will become a genuine network, rather than a single face-to-face group.

We plan related webinars, so that people who are not at the face-to-face meetings will also be able to join in.

http://photos1.meetupstatic.com/photos/event/7/a/7/8/event_182311352.jpegAlthough membership of our site is free we do expect all those who attend our events to pay an annual subscription that covers attendance not just one meeting but also to the vast majority of our meetups and webinars for any one year. It also allows you to bring one guest free to every meeting or webinar.

The subscription is £10 a year for those who commit to a recurrent annual payment for the next three years. During that time the price will not go up. For those who want to pay for one year only then it will be £12 for this year.

Both of the above applies to those who pay in advance by paypal, eventbrite or by cheque. For those who pay at the door or after the event then the subscription will be £15

If you are unable to pay online this way can you please let us know and we will make other arrangements. Also we never refuse membership to anyone who is unable to pay so please let us know if there are difficulties this way and you will still be able to join in.
