    #WeirdEd I'll be guiding the chat, but most of the Qs will come from either @technolandy or @doodlinmunkyboy since they wrote the thing

    #WeirdEd So unfamiliar with the topic. But It'd probably be relevant to education.
  • technolandy Oct 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT
    Good day #WeirdEd and welcome to some thinkings from the great White north. And if you don’t get everything, well I’m sure we’ll apologize along the way!
  • TheWeirdTeacher - Moderator Oct 25 @ 10:02 PM EDT
    #WeirdEd So to start off, please introduce yourself and tell us who you would make the national band of your country.
