#mediaedchat So exciting to see students lead broadcast under that live event pressure+work alongside
staff+peers from other arts subjects.

“@andywallis: @nizlamb should we aim for TeachMeet style events or something more unique? #mediaedchat”
Would love to see this happening!

#mediaedchat Sorry I missed chat. Xmas concert+our 1st yr13 Btec multicam live edit Internet stream.
Footage+talkback recorded for debrief.

#mediaedchat argh missed this. Bt there seems very little in my area. Do the media groups work?

@andywallis Hi Andy,I'm a media HOD from the NE, wasn't aware of #mediaedchat but would love to get
involved next time. Sam

@nizlamb I think you are right, approach from all available angles #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:52 | andywallis
@nizlamb That's very true, and easy to forget one you're immersed in it #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:51 | digitaldaisies
I think we perhaps place too much premium on e-communication. Just because we are using doesn't mean
colleagues at same level #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:50 | nizlamb
A quiet #mediaedchat this week (not surprising for the time of year!), but thank you as always to all who were
involved. More next week!
11-Dec-12 20:50 | andywallis
So, something more physical for people to have, up the online presence, let MEA know what's happening, and
more biscuits! #mediaedchat

RT @petesmediablog: #mediaedchat any ideas on things we can do via MEA site let me know
11-Dec-12 20:45 | andywallis
@digitaldaisies I think that can be achieved online (am sure I've done it in the past somehow!) #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:43 | andywallis
RT @LauraCurranBun: Will ask my group how they think media has helped in other subjects. Will tweet their
ideas, or they can! #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:42 | andywallis
@nizlamb #mediaedchat by the time they get it...crumbs!

3. #mediaedchat have to go in a minute as called to gate. Freezing fog so wish me and the pilot luck!
11-Dec-12 20:38 | petesmediablog
#mediaedchat good idea Neil. Use some of that biscuit money!
11-Dec-12 20:38 | petesmediablog
Can the MEA do more to support local groups? Does the website need more publicity? If so, how? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:37 | andywallis
@nizlamb it might make a difference to have something tactile & personal. worth a shot at least! #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:36 | andywallis
@andywallis perhaps I will send out an actual physical newsletter in the New Year #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:35 | nizlamb
@LauraCurranBun definitely get students involved to promote it in the right manner' love seeing that happen
#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:34 | andywallis
@nizlamb call me old fashioned, but a headed written letter inviting colleagues to an event would work imo (as
well as e-means) #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:33 | andywallis
what is the best way of keeping in contact with colleagues? email often gets ignored or forgotten, Facebook
groups?#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:31 | nizlamb
So as there are several MEA local groups out there, how can 'we' get the message out to the many?
#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:31 | andywallis
@digitaldaisies seems like you're getting back into the loop! :) #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:30 | andywallis
@nizlamb absolutely, but I think we have to in the right manner (without the shouting!) #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:28 | andywallis
RT @nizlamb: can be difficult to keep up momentum & energy without slipping into spam/lone nut job shouting at
passers by? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:27 | andywallis
@digitaldaisies have you thought about setting up a local group for Media teachers? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:25 | andywallis
@LauraCurranBun absolutely, so would a TeachMeet style event help to promote that? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:22 | andywallis
I think the momentum is happening for people who are willing to risk going out there & meetin up in different area
#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:21 | andywallis

4. @nizlamb in some ways, I think that attitude needs to change & is a BIG problem for MS #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:17 | andywallis
@andywallis #mediaedchat not sure that's true! Lots of people I meet are unaware of teachmeet as a concept
11-Dec-12 20:17 | petesmediablog
@andywallis i think maybe media teaching is fun part of what lot of english teachers do so they are happy with it
as sideline? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:16 | nizlamb
@TheoKuechel @nizlamb I think as a starting point a TM style would be good, as it's now recognisable by most
#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:15 | andywallis
#mediaedchat joining you from departures at Belfast airport! Flight delayed
11-Dec-12 20:14 | petesmediablog
@andywallis teachmeet good if geographically convenient maybe less easy somewhere like East Sussex where
we are more spread #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:14 | nizlamb
@nizlamb so is that a league table induced aspect in terms of priorities or something deeper? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:14 | andywallis
@andywallis @nizlamb I'm not a media teacher but have an interest - I would think Teachmeet would be ideal
#mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:13 | TheoKuechel
as much as they might like it to be #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:12 | nizlamb
I think a problem we face is that a lot of media teachers are first & foremost english teachers so media is not their
priority #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:11 | nizlamb
@nizlamb should we aim for TeachMeet style events or something more unique? #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:11 | andywallis
the difficulty is sustaining interest and contact with all the other pressures and workload commitments that
teachers have #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:10 | nizlamb
Having set up a local MEA group (East Sussex) I hope I have contacted all or most of the media teachers in the
area. #mediaedchat
11-Dec-12 20:09 | nizlamb
RT @andywallis: How many people are aware that local MEA groups are being set up around the country?

@MediaEdAssc tonight's #mediaedchat should be particularly relevant to the MEA http://t.co/a03U0C57
