I Want To, But I Need Help...
Do you need assistance getting your class webpages up and running, but your free periods don't line up with mine?
If you have resources that you would like on your website, but either don't know how to do it or just need some support, then why don't we work on it together.
In an initial meeting we can discuss what needs to be uploaded and where and then we can collaborate together to build up your online presence! I can allocate some of my availability to working on your site pages and so can you...
Send me an email, grab me whenever Im near or visit my desk.
Lets collaborate!
Authentic Use Of Technology
One of the biggest challenges in using technology in teaching is knowing when to NOT use the technology!
ICT skills are vital for 21st Century learning, but so are the social skills and problem solving skills. Using technology should not be the focus, and if it distracts from the learning then rethink its use. The use of the technology must be authentic and add to the learning experience.
This video, I feel, is an excellent example on a number of levels. The message of technology overuse is delivered beautifully, but underlying this is a message about the effective use of technology in a creative, authentic, powerful way. Afterall, the video would not have been envisaged, filmed, created, edited, shared and trended worldwide, if it wasn't for the use of these 21st Century skills.
Good On You Rosemary!

24-7. It also allows a feedback conversations between staff and students 24-7.
The organisation of the Google Drive subject folders means that each pupil knows where their work is, can access it anytime and can build up an organised collection of work that can be opened on any device.
