ICT

ICT has become an important part of classroom life, children love using ICT equipment and it always amazes me how fast they pick it up.

With the way education is heading I know that it is important as a teacher to be able to implement the use of ICT in the Classroom. I am confident using interactive whiteboards, computers, I pads, scanners, cameras and laptops.


 * As ICT is continually evolving, I believe it is important we embrace it and develop our skills where needed, to provide our children with an up to date and modern education that will set them up for the future.
 * While at University I took part in E-Learning sessions with Andrea Robertson. These involved a small group of students looking at different ways to integrate and use E-Learning in the classroom.


 * I know how to and have successfully set up a wiki-space, http://missdyer.wikispaces.com.Please visit my wiki-space to find out more about me.


 * In the future I am looking forward to developing a class wiki or a blog. Wiki’s and blog’s are a great place where children can display work and access educational games/resources during and after school. I also see them as another way to keep parents involved and informed in their child’s learning.
