Blogging Challenge

Posted on October 5th, 2009 in Uncategorized by Lisa-Gaye

For the last few weeks of the term I have had my IST class participate in the Edublogs Blog Comments challenges. Have a look at what these new bloggers have achieved as they have been working – all their own work because I have bluntly refused to ’show’ them :-) It was scary how many times they wanted me to show them the quick fixes :-(

I love technology too

I can’t imagine returning to the days of teaching (or living) without technology as we now know it. For old times sake, I don’t think I would even really want to.

This came into my Google Reader this morning from http://pluke.edublogs.org/2009/08/09/i-love-learning-i-love-technology/.  Worth a read and a think.
