Thoughts on 2 conferences: #altc - UK, heavily #edtech focussed, #2019NVC - Australia, #VocEd focus.
I participated in #altc through YouTube live streamed sessions and a vibrant Twitter back channel, connected with dozens of educators I hadn’t ‘met’ before
On Sunday evenings I often join with hundreds of #educators in #AussieEd another lively group (mostly K12) sharing in #CPD through chats on Twitter & ‘meet’ new people every week
This week I’m at #2019NVC Australia’s biggest #VocEd conference, where a handful of us are tweeting into a void. Where are the vibrant conversations between those of us here and those not?
The #educators of #HE #edtech and K12 are all benefiting from building community and learning on Twitter but where are #VocEd? How do those of us here inspire our colleagues to join in? @velgtraining any ideas?

Thread: So I have to write an assignment in which I "identify a new technology that is currently influencing workplace education & training, provide a weblink that describes the new technology, & describe how the new technology is making an impact (+ve or -ve).
So although Twitter isn't really a "new" technology, if somebody isn't using Twitter it would be new to them, so I think that counts #edtech
I've been using Twitter for almost 5 years, and in that time, have connected with educators across the globe to share ideas, learn together and encourage each other.
