Today’s Gathering has pre-recorded sessions (to allow greater flexibility for presenters and tech hosts during the pandemic).
This means:
- Keep your eye on the time! You will see the session from the start, not live in progress… don’t miss the next one!
- Tweet with #TheEdCollabGathering. Presenters looking forward to connecting!
