The Edtech Podcast is excited to launch its inaugural festival in 2018. The mission of the one-day festival will be to bring together ‘ed’ and ‘tech’ for better innovation. The Edtech Podcast Festival aims to bring together everyone involved in education innovation. Educators from early years to higher education and everything in between, start-ups, bluechips, publishers, investors, and media. We’ll work hard to mix you up and make your experience as hands on as possible.
Some of the features announced include:
- A LIVE podcast programme featuring a community of edu podcasters including TeacherToolkit, DebateMate & Six Formers from School 21 showcasing their real world learning podcast project
