Welcome

Welcome to Lucy and Diarmid's ICT Tips and Tricks in Literacy and English Language 2009. Diarmid is at Dalguise Outdoor Education Centre, so Sharon has kindly offered to assist.

Our intention is to present you with some tips and tricks that work for us with pupils and staff.

Success Criteria
We will be very pleased if even a few of the ideas here catch your imagination and are taken back to your own school and children.

We also hope that you will consider accessing this blog later and adding your own tips and tricks.

Keep Abreast by Following Educational Blogs

Blogging is not only a wonderful tool to use with pupils, it is also a powerful tool for supporting continuing professional development. We have learned so much from others who are leading the way in embedding ICT to enhance learning teaching and here are a few of the vanguard Edubloggers that we follow:

Ollie Bray is a qualified headteacher currently seconded to work as National Adviser for Learning and Technology Futures at Learning and Teaching Scotland.
John Johnston was a prolific class teacher at Sandaig Primary in Glasgow, and last year joined North Lanarkshire Council as an Educational ICT Development Officer.
Ewan McIntosh was National Adviser for Learning and Technology Futures at Learning and Teaching Scotland and is now Digital Commissioner for Channel 4 Television's Innovation for the Public Fund.
Will Richardson is one of America's leading Educational Bloggers.
Bill Boyd is a Teacher, Education Manager and Independent Learning Consultant with a particular interest in Literacy and Moving Image Education.
Alan November is another American Web 2.0 guru whose ideas about global communication, collaboration, assessment, and critical thinking have inspired schools, governments and corporations around the world to rethink and redefine their approach to education and technology.
