“Pete the Sheep”

The annual National Simultaneous Storytime happened today at 11am: “Pete the Sheep” by Jackie French & Bruce Whatley, as a PowerPoint presentation on my school’s new interactive whiteboard! Thanks ALIA for a fun event!

This afternoon, I’m being whisked off to Leichhardt to speak about wikis to educators in the Professional Association for Learning Support.

Main points will include: what is a wiki?; setting one up; and uses in the classroom.

I’m hoping to impart: enthusiasm; the importance of being a practitioner in Web 2.0 (to become familiar and confident with its facilities); and tips for embeding ICT (information communication technologies) into pedagogy.

Much of what I will speak about can be found online at:
