A TeachMeet is an organised but informal meeting (in the style of an unconference) for teachers to share good practice, practical innovations and personal insights in teaching with technology. These events are often organised to coincide with other educational events like the Scottish Learning Festival and the British Educational Technology and Training Show BETT. Participants volunteer (via the TeachMeet website) to demonstrate good practice they've delivered over the past year, or discuss a product that enhances classroom practice.〔Scottish Learning Festival and TeachMeet () - www.bbc.co.uk/blogs, 22 September 2009, Claire McCallum |〕〔Scottish Learning Festival - Mini presentations make micro waves for ideas () - Times Educational Supplement - Published in TESS on 18 September 2009, Douglas Blan〕 TeachMeet events are open to all and do not charge an entry fee. ==History== Originally conceived in the summer of 2006 in Edinburgh, Scotland, under the name "ScotEduBlogs Meetup".
