Kent Computing Teachers Gathering/UnConference 2023

Hi All,

I want to gather Computing Teachers in Kent for an informal gathering and networking event
Monday 23rd October 2023 - Half Term - 10:00 to 13:00
I've booked Lg14 room on CCCU campus canterbury.ac.uk Lg14 OpenStreetMap what3words.com/tour.sleep.showed
I intend this to feel like an un-conference, where people can talk/present ideas for 10min with a low bar (no powerpoint nonsense)
- Examples:
  - A teacher could talk about how they deliver a "Networks" module to GCSE and talk about the approach
  - Specifically asking the room what long term digital literacy people put in place in year 7 and 8 to help with GCSE's later
  - How your school is including/encouraging wider groups to take up Computing
I'm hoping that by booking the space and timeboxing the event we can trial the ideas and see what happens
I would love to see a range of our wider community there
- Recent PGCE/SD trainees, mentors, old veterans
Feel free to send this invite to any other Computing teachers across the county
Let me know if you're interested by popping me a 'hello' email - I would love to hear from you.

See you soon
