Hi everyone,

Sorry for cross-postings, but we have a varied program coming up this Saturday and Sunday with Learning2gether.

First, you can find the Learning2gether archives at http://learning2gether.net. There you'll find the recordings from our chat with Nellie Deutsch last Sunday

http://learning2gether.net/2013/06/02/176462403/

Nellie was kicking off a Moodle MOOC and scheduled Learning2gether as one of the first events in her program, following right on the heels of her conversation with Martin Dougiamas, Moodle's creator. There are recordings of these events in WiZiQ, and Nellie has been putting YouTube renditions of these up on her YouTube channel:

For the learning2gether posting I was able to get an mp3 using a free tool

So you can have a WiZiQ, YouTube, or mp3 version of our last event.

This weekend we have more coming up, see

Nellie is hosting Dave Cormier on her Moodle MOOC program on Saturday at 14:00 GMT, sorry about the long link to the session

Then on Sunday, June 9, Ana Cristina Pratas will join us in Elluminate at 13:00 GMT to share her experiences doing volunteer edtech training in Nepal.

Here I'm hoping to bring Future of Learning in a Networked World into the conversation, esp. with respect to my own experiences in Thailand in 2008, but that was only a small part of the whole picture, and perhaps we can get others involved in this movement to join us as well, in Bb Collaborate / Elluminate:

Finally at 1900 on Sunday BaW is planning a Tweetmeet, which will take place entirely on Twitter using the hashtag #13baw

To join in click the following link and start tweeting

If you tweet after 1900 GMT on Sunday Jun 9 you'll be a part of an online conversation.

So there's plenty going on over the weekend and we hope you'll join us in one of more of these free grass-roots events.
