Hey David, Sorry it has taken me a while to get back to you! Starting next week, my Year 11 class is looking at the 20th Century from 1945 - 2000, and my Year 12 class is starting the Russian Revolution. I've already got a ning for my Year 11 cla...

Testing Notaland.com

I’m thinking of using Notaland.com in my Year 11 History class this semester. It lets you put together scrap-book like pages, where you can add videos from YouTube or pictures from Flickr and lots of other things. You can also leave comment on people’s pages. My thoughts are that my students could create a page for [...]

Hi Jess. I am just getting the hang of Skype so I may have done it wrong.
My user name is cwhebbard, so I guess you just add that name.
I am thinking very seriously about starting a collaborative project for my 5/6 class as they are getting Netbooks. I thought you and Anne Mirtschin might be able to steer me in the right direction. Cheers.

Great stuff Jess- for that first form, if you could just put down your head's name and a basic admin email address (probly a office@...), that would be great. Then if you enclose your name and email address, you'll be issued your password. When you've done that you'll have Silver Membership of the site and be able to explore and speak to teachers around the world.

If you want your to register your students and take part in projects then you can upgrade for free to Gold membership.

Hi Jess, yes I´ve got a lot of experiences on using Web 2.0 apps in the classroom - feel free to check some of my sites.
Would like if you decide to join my group on CR 2.0: DigiSkills with 470 members and my group on Grou.ps: http://grou.ps/digiskills
in order to share links and more.
Have a great weekend

Thanks Jess. I work with Bretter Lockyer at Overnewton but am a relatively new arival from Qld. I have been resisting my IWB and being a bit of a whinger about NOT having computers in my classroom. Build a bridge, I say. I have been working with Helen Otway to become an ICT Peer Coach and really want to move back into state education. Thanks for responding to my post. Have a great Sunday!

I am relatively new here. I am from Ghana and I'm just here to learn, contribute as well as link up with like-minded people who will be willing to share their experiences as well as help in spreading the concept of distance learning and adult education to Africa, which lags behind as far as education is concerned. hope to find a friend in you.

Are you still using twitter in the classroom. I was initially interested (having just jumped on board myself) and started a discussion about it but others weren't so keen on my behalf. Has it been a positive experience in your classroom?
