A huge amount of mathematical concepts, lesson details and interactive videos that can be used in Mathematics.

This numeracy video was created for educational purposes and designed for students teachers and parents to use as a resource when teaching fractions in a junior primary setting. Our video aims to communicate the importance of numeracy as a life skill as it shows how numeracy can be used beyond the classroom. For example, real life situations such as baking a chocolate cake :)

This video could be used as part of numeracy learning experiences, either as a base to a numeracy lesson, lesson introduction, or lesson idea. It could also encorporate cross curricula links to subjects such as ICT and Home Economics!

Statistics and Probability These lessons are geared toward the elementary aged students - 3rd to 6th grades. Very practical and real life problems.

A great 'teacher' version of YouTube that is not as likely to be blocked in primary schools.

Explain Everything is an easy-to-use design tool that lets you annotate, animate, and narrate explanations and presentations. You can create dynamic interactive lessons, activities, assessments, and tutorials using Explain Everything's flexible and integrated design. Use Explain Everything as an interactive whiteboard using the iPad2 video display.

A useful website that reflects on the Australian curriculum, ICT use in the classroom and TPACK.

Thanks Ayako. Very interesting indeed.

Thanks for sharing Ayako! I've only had a quick look at this resource, but it looks like it could be very helpful - particularly some of the lesson ideas which work in with the TPACK model and clearly highlight how the outcomes of the Australian Curriculum are being met.

This page provides a breakdown of videos within the Technology Integration Matrix by grade level. Although you may be primarily interested in a particular level, we encourage you to view the ways in which technology is used in other grade levels. For example, you will find videos of high school classrooms in which the technology tools could be used in the same way with middle school or elementary level students. Some videos involve students from both middle and high school grades and some involve students from both middle and elementary grades. These videos appear in both lists below.

I found the TIM framework a really useful way to think about how to integrate technology into my daily instructional practices. Having an understanding of where I sit in relation to the ACOT levels of Technology model helped to to recognise how far i've come in relation to my own understandings of how to use technologies effectively, but also how much opportunity there is far me to expand my knowledge.

This is an educational video on 'how to make chocolate brownies'. This video focuses on the numeracy aspects of time and measurement, with other aspects of area and perimeter. In a more advanced lesson, volume can also be taught as well as weight and size. This is a video aiming for Primary School students but can be adapted and modified for older students.

A video created for educational purposes that focuses on numeracy. This video demonstrates mathematical skills of Measurement and Time in a fun environment of cooking in a kitchen. While it was aimed at Year 3/4s it would be easily adapted to different year levels depending on the focus. It is aimed to engage students in learning about numeracy while using ICT

INFOGRAPHICS* are engaging, interesting visualizations of data across all subject areas. They provide a great entry point into learning.

Consider incorporating infographics into your statistics lesson for assignment 2!
