A previous blogpost talked of the Nintendogs project that we initiated in two P.2 classes up in Aberdeenshire. I managed to arrange a visit there in order to capture (video, audio and image) all the practice that we could for case study presentation. Unsure of what we were going to find, we made our way up to that beautiful part of Scotland full of hope and anticipation that the practice that we would see would be something special.

This is one of our class blogs where ads have been appearing recently. The class teacher contacted me for advice and I suggested that the school could sign up to be an edublogs supporter and then there would be no more ads appearing on their site. I also pointed out that if any other teachers were keen to set up a class blog, then their blogs could be included in the school's 'ad free' package. The school is happy to do that and the problem will be resolved soon.

Further to my initial thoughts of linking up the use of Diigo annotations with Google Notebook use I have developed a visual workflow of how a student might interact in this way.

We love playing great games. But we're busy. And like everyone else, we seem to live in our web browsers. That's where we keep up with friends, get music, read, shop, watch a video. Whenever we have a free minute. We want to find our games there too. Why can't we play cool 3D games in our web browsers, as easily as we check our email? Honestly, because it's not been easy to do.
