About Me:
My name is Sue Waters and I’m the person behind Mobile Technology. You may also know me as the editor of The Edublogger

“I am about practical application of technologies in education, and most importantly HELPING OTHERS”.

I have been sharing my experiences with Web 2.0, e-learning and m-learning (mobile learning) using a range of web sites since early 2006.

Many of my sites are called Mobile Technology in TAFE because my original focus was mlearning. Nowadays my sites cover a wide range of information on using technology with students. TAFE stands Tertiary and Further education which is part of the vocational education and training sector.

Hi Sue,
In December I had never seen a Wiki. My students and I jumped in with both feet and haven't looked back. The students are very excited to have a real audience. Please take a look at what they've created so far. RPG Maker XP Help. We would appreciate any feedback you have. Currently the wiki is protected, so you'll have to either email me your feedback or give it through Classroom 2.0.
Thanks!
Pat

Hi Sue,

With your work in mLearning and Ed Tech, I recommend you take a look at Wiziq's virtual classroom and authorstream's power point presentation platform. Both are web based platforms, have a bunch of features and free basic service.

Sue -

I'm interested in the survey you did on computer literacy before a training (mentioned back in July, I think). Where can I see the actual survey, if you don't mind sharing?

Many thanks Sue, your blog looks very informative, looks like you have been exploring and learning lots. Will also need to check out twitter, another Web 2.0 technology to explore. Finding it hard to find the time as Xmas approaches.
All the best and have a great festive season.
