About the TeachMeetNZ project.
TeachMeetNZ is about New Zealand Teachers connecting online and face to face. The project reflects the research and work of New Zealand educators in action. These live and face to face events are convened across all education sectors to address the emerging technologies, trends, and challenges poised to significantly impact teaching and learning.  TeachMeetNZ has been live streaming since May 2013. Unfortunately 2019 saw the end of live streaming via Google Hangouts.

We now have had over 120 educators who have joined in to help create an artefact for the education community.
