#PubPDAsia on Tuesday Evening at Viking

A reminder that on Tuesday evening NIS will host #PubPDAsia at Viking Bar. The chat will focus on the OECD 2030 Future of Education Compass (below) and will be facilitated by Sandra Chow from Keystone in Beijing. Our own Ginna Daza will be our Twitter moderator!

If this is of interest to you, please let Kasson know so he can confirm approximate numbers. Just turning up on the evening is ok too! The first round is on Kasson 🙂 Time TBD and more info below. Thanks!

#PubPDAsia is our regional branch of a worldwide movement in which educators across Asia gather at a local establishment at the same date and time to participate in a synchronous, thought-provoking, professional conversation. This conversation has a topic (which is moderated through a series of prompt)s by a regional rockstar. Schools connect in real time via Twitter to see each others’ ideas and add to the discussion.
