@andywallis Hi Andy,I'm a media HOD from the NE, wasn't aware of #mediaedchat but would love to getinvolved 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

I think we perhaps place too much premium on e-communication. Just because we are using doesn't meancolleagues at same level #mediaedchat

A quiet #mediaedchat this week (not surprising for the time of year!), but thank you as always to all who wereinvolved. More next week!


So, something more physical for people to have, up the online presence, let MEA know what's happening, andmore biscuits! #mediaedchat


RT @petesmediablog: #mediaedchat any ideas on things we can do via MEA site let me know


@digitaldaisies I think that can be achieved online (am sure I've done it in the past somehow!) #mediaedchat


RT @LauraCurranBun: Will ask my group how they think media has helped in other subjects. Will tweet theirideas, or they can! #mediaedchat


@nizlamb #mediaedchat by the time they get it...crumbs!

@andywallis also - will exam boards give a list of schools in ur area entering students 4 media ? One way to getin touch #mediaedchat


@LauraCurranBun that would be great! Please get them to use the tag #mediaedchat :)


@petesmediablog an ideal way to spend it maybe with a biscuit in the envelope as incentive or the promise offuture biscuits #mediaedchat


@andywallis different loop :-) hard copy newsletter idea is good, with a useful link/idea/article so people keep +read it #mediaedchat


#mediaedchat any ideas on things we can do via MEA site let me know


#mediaedchat have to go in a minute as called to gate. Freezing fog so wish me and the pilot luck!


#mediaedchat good idea Neil. Use some of that biscuit money!


Can the MEA do more to support local groups? Does the website need more publicity? If so, how? #mediaedchat


@nizlamb it might make a difference to have something tactile & personal. worth a shot at least! #mediaedchat


@andywallis perhaps I will send out an actual physical newsletter in the New Year #mediaedchat


@LauraCurranBun definitely get students involved to promote it in the right manner' love seeing that happen#mediaedchat


@nizlamb call me old fashioned, but a headed written letter inviting colleagues to an event would work imo (aswell as e-means) #mediaedchat


what is the best way of keeping in contact with colleagues? email often gets ignored or forgotten, Facebookgroups?#mediaedchat


So as there are several MEA local groups out there, how can 'we' get the message out to the many?#mediaedchat


@digitaldaisies seems like you're getting back into the loop! :) #mediaedchat


@nizlamb absolutely, but I think we have to in the right manner (without the shouting!) #mediaedchat


RT @nizlamb: can be difficult to keep up momentum & energy without slipping into spam/lone nut job shouting atpassers by? #mediaedchat


@digitaldaisies have you thought about setting up a local group for Media teachers? #mediaedchat


@LauraCurranBun absolutely, so would a TeachMeet style event help to promote that? #mediaedchat


I think the momentum is happening for people who are willing to risk going out there & meetin up in different area#mediaedchat


#mediaedchat others schools in rotation but even then 90s it was hard to keep up the commitment and required afew of us energetic promoters


@petesmediablog @andywallis Having said that not sure what's going on in SW #mediaedchat


#mediaedchat in the old days (!) I used to be part of a media teachers s group in Enfield and then one inCambridge where we met at each


@andywallis agreed. not enough dedicated media specialists #mediaedchat


@petesmediablog yes, you're right, 'most' was perhaps the wrong word to use! #mediaedchat


@nizlamb in some ways, I think that attitude needs to change & is a BIG problem for MS #mediaedchat


@andywallis #mediaedchat not sure that's true! Lots of people I meet are unaware of teachmeet as a concept


@andywallis i think maybe media teaching is fun part of what lot of english teachers do so they are happy with itas sideline? #mediaedchat


@TheoKuechel @nizlamb I think as a starting point a TM style would be good, as it's now recognisable by most#mediaedchat


#mediaedchat joining you from departures at Belfast airport! Flight delayed


@andywallis teachmeet good if geographically convenient maybe less easy somewhere like East Sussex wherewe are more spread #mediaedchat


@nizlamb so is that a league table induced aspect in terms of priorities or something deeper? #mediaedchat


@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


I think a problem we face is that a lot of media teachers are first & foremost english teachers so media is not theirpriority #mediaedchat


@nizlamb should we aim for TeachMeet style events or something more unique? #mediaedchat


the difficulty is sustaining interest and contact with all the other pressures and workload commitments thatteachers have #mediaedchat


Having set up a local MEA group (East Sussex) I hope I have contacted all or most of the media teachers in thearea. #mediaedchat


RT @andywallis: How many people are aware that local MEA groups are being set up around the country?#mediaedchat

@andywallis #mediaedchat I can't make tonight I'm afraid. My suggestion: tweet celebs who moan about mediastudies with examples of work etc
