I love seeing what other people are doing with free web tools - there’s a lot of free tools out there empowering teachers and students to make great stuff. I’m always still drawn to embracing the geek in me and programming my own tools for use in the class. I don’t actually have the time, but I still feel the urge to.

It explains the fixation with moodle, anyway.

Kids have been doing ok with the third year blog. I feel that their summaries and comments are still quite unfocussed. I’m giving them a few weeks though - I’m betting one or two pupils will write a stunner and the rest will fall into place. Summaries, coming as they do at the end of the lesson, will need to be in bigger writing in my lesson planner. The lack of priority over the many many other tasks the kids must do means that I feel it is getting rushed.

Just a wee thought, there.

In other news, no progress podcasting, as I’m waiting for some materials to arrive. Thanks for all the comments on this blog and the old blog - some very nice things said. I’ll try to keep updating regularly, particularly about the podcasting.
