Welcome
If the technology doesn't save me time, enhance learning for my students OR BOTH... I don't need it!
This is our home base for the next three days. In conjunction with our wiki this is you we will find important details on the agenda and share your learning.
Once we finish, the site will remain here for you to review as you wish and share with colleagues once you get back to your schools. |
Take a look around and please share any comments or suggestions you may have.
A HUGE thanks to Jay Graham for access to his site from which a god deal of this was imported
