I was lucky enough to be asked to contribute to the HIAS SLD days and this time I have been asked to review some NEW technologies. I thought that it might be a good idea to write short blog post on each technology or tool, colleagues could then either download / print or share the blog post for anyone to take advantage of. I am trying to be a little more eco responsible. I will try and set out a template, so anyone with any thoughts or comments, please feel free to let me know.
I thought I would start with how much, it seems to be the question everyone needs to know but was wary of asking (with the except of a few and arent pleased for the few). Then, what the tools is/does. How it could be used for teaching and how it could be used for learning. Simple, quick and easy. My version of 5 minutes meals for ICT.
Each of the blog posts that follow will be tagged HIAS SLD and hopefully, if I can keep myself organised, numbered! So look out for periodical tools reviews starting with screencasting and mini cams, well these were the first two items I was asked to review.
