Afternoon all,

Last week was a little quiet on ICTs in English - there was however some
great online PD and teacher support highlighted:

Barbara Reid shared their ICT PD cluster wiki:
In our clusters, we are encouraging teachers and students to create tutorials
for others. The wiki has a mixture of tutorials off the net, as well as ones
created by cluster members. http://how2doit.wikispaces.com/.

Alison Cleary also shared another great resource "produced by teachers for
teachers":
http://learnitin5.com/ - 'At Learn it in 5, you'll learn what is Web 2.0, and
strategies
for using Web 2.0 technology in the digital classroom - all
in 5 minutes or less' - produced by teachers for teachers.

This week I would like to highlight the ICT strategies page on English Online:
http://englishonline.tki.org.nz/English-Online/Teacher-needs/Pedagogy/ICT-strategies

And in particular the e-learning as Inquiry page on TKI
http://elearningasinquiry.tki.org.nz/
Considering that as part of NZC implementation we are all expected to teach
using an evidence based inquiry cycle (see below), a resource like this one
is very helpful!

"All schools need to do a couple of things - they need to design and
implement a school curriculum and they need to teach using an evidence based
inquiry cycle that informs what they do and monitors the impact of those
decisions." - Chris Arcus (NZC Curriculum Manager) - Edgazette August 2009


Have a great Week 8!

Claire
