Using web resources in the classroom - session 2

In this session we'll be looking at tips for using IWBs in the classroom.

• You can download this article Focus on interactive whiteboard technology which I think is very useful.

• There's also a good video from teachers.tv  Primary ICT - Creating a Whiteboard Lesson

We'll also be looking at:

• Glogster.edu which is good fun for making mini-blogs and interactive posters
• Zimmertwins for making animated movies
• the new LearnEnglish Kids site which has loads of resources for teachers and kids plus ways for you to become involved

Using web reources in the classroom – session 1

We looked at creating vokis.


If you want a reminder of the steps involved in creating a voki, here's a tutorial.

And here's a tutorial for embedding a voki into A WordPress blog. Basically you need to add this button to your browser toolbar.

We also looked at creating VoiceThreads.




Again, here's a tutorial if you need a reminder of the steps.

You also might find this video from teachers.tv interesting which shows teachers using vokis and VoiceThread (amongst other web 2.0 resources) in the classroom.

Key word: learning

We'll devote next two seminars to learn and improve our ICT skills along with Ann from the British Council.
Looking forward to seeing you all.
