ICT West Coast

Professional Development Project

Hello!

Welcome to ictwestcoast.ac.nz. This is where you will be kept up to date with what is happening with the project, important dates and more. Please check back frequently to see the latest developments.

Training Site

As most of you will know the training site is open for you to go into and have a look around. If you have any problems flick me an email and I will see if I can sort it out for you.

I have been looking at the reports and seen that quite a few people have been having a good look around. Some Lead Teachers have already completed their tasks, well done for being so quick off the mark.

I hope that the others get in and complete them soon. I am really interested in a discussion on the areas that have been put up specifically for support and have been requested by teachers/principals.

Is this a way that we can support each other even though we are very spread out over the West Coast?

We will see how willing people are to do this for others. Watch this space.

I am off to Awahono tomorrow. They have put theirs hands up to organise a Kids Conference here on the coast. I know a lot of the schools down south and up the valley went over to Christchurch and attended the two day Congress for Kids that was held last week.

I would love one of the students to write up a report from one of these schools that I could put up on this blog.

Send me an email if you have someone who would like to do this.

Maruia

Grant and I have had a great couple of days at Marui, working with the students.

Grant worked with a group of students and they created an imovie on their school. I worked with another group on setting up and writing in their own blogs.

I thought I would share the imove the students created.

Well done, it is great.

This one is simple in the way it shows you the front page of a site, which students may find easier to choose from while searching.
