    The Assembly is welcoming comments on this document.
  • ...3 more comments...
  •  
    Will comments be attributed? There is a lot of information in here. How is it communicated to the people and is there a role for schools at all?
  •  
    I dont think comments will be attributed - but if anyone has any firm views on the stuff in this document then now's the time to voice them. Thought the document might be of interest to all of you so that you know the direction the Assembly intends to head digitally over the next few years

    I have to say, it doesn't seem very realistic to me. The author notes that they are being ambitious but I'm not sure they appreciate HOW ambitious this is.

    Use funds for kit and sessions like TeachMeets such as OAPMeets or something PeopleMeets - not in libraries and schools but pubs and cafes - also put books etc into pubs and cafes as well - not just digital wales but learning wales! & don't use funds for glossy booklets and stuff.

    Nice ideas, but I'd question the effectiveness of putting books in pubs. No-one I know would put down a beer on a Saturday night so that they can read about photosynthesis or mitosis. Books in pubs are more likely to serve as coasters or something for people to throw when the fights break out! Or maybe I just have a poor choice of pub. ;)

Questioning Toolkit - 1 views

  • What does it mean to be a good friend? What kind of friend shall I be? Who will I include in my circle of friends? How shall I treat my friends? How do I cope with the loss of a friend? What can I learn about friends and friendships from the novels we read in school? How can I be a better friend?

      I really like this questioning website - I'm going to share it with the NGfL Cymru team. DCELLS are big on Socratic questioning at the moment - we've done some research - I'll post some of the best sites we've found in a bit

      If you search for questioning tag you'll find a few more socratic questions links too!
