Tonight Steve and Jay are joined by the almost omnipresent Bev Evans. Bev’s resources on TES have very nearly reached the 3 million download mark. She has been a major part of the Twitter and Teachmeet movements which have built community and shared resources, ideas and expertise among teachers. Tonight we discuss building community and moving beyond simply connecting and toward growing.
Also in the news this week…
Bev is gearing up for the first teachmeet focussing solely on SEN.

Steve looks at some research which proves the old adage ‘mistakes are treasures’.
Jay remembers a former Prime Minister – Gordon Brown calls for an international fund to ensure that the world sees universal access to primary education.
Check out Bev’s blog and website – a must for teachers looking for inspirational ideas.

Tonight Matthew and Steve are joined once again by Jaye Richards-Hill. The theme of the programme is about education and egalitarianism with respect to gay/lesbian/ and transgender orientations.
We review the year of themes that emerged on inside learning podcasting, in which Mr Gove features regularly along with Jay’s infusion of Christmas cracker jokes; Matthew rings the bells. It has been a complex year in education and looks likely to be so in 2012. We have really enjoyed podcasting together and thank all our wonderful guests who have added variety and expertise to the programme. A big thank you to Anne Glennie who has been a regular contributor and will be returning in the New Year.
