Alan November-Will Richardson pod cast

I found this on Mark Ahlness' blog a few weeks ago and it's a great introduction to blogging for those who are just starting out with it. Alan, Will and Mark are great believers in how edu-blogging and the read-write web in general can empower kids, encourage creativity and independent learning. I would recommend subscribing to their blogs via RSSRSS Feed (look out for this symbol or the XML one so you are automatically updated when they publish a new post.

Happy Blogging!

Teacher Resource Exchange

TRE was mentioned by a Wendy Adeniji whose seminar on the use of the IWB in MFL I attended at BETT a couple of weeks ago. It's a growing library of teacher and pupils resources produced and shared across subject areas. You can search by key stage or subject.

Sharing ideas and good practice forms part of the ethos of Hands on Support. I would be interested if anyone has found other great sites which promote collaboration  and allow teachers to access quality resources to promote teaching and learning.

Alan Day's 25th Jan  post mentions the practical support pack which will help teachers embed ICT effectively in subjects.

New blog

This is the new secondary HOS blog and will replace the previous November Learning one.

I hope that it will become a forum for secondary colleagues to exchange ideas, share resources and spread effective practice on how they use ICT in their subjects.
