In this video, Patrick Halpin, Donabate-Portrane Educate Together National School, shows how he uses Photostory with 4th class. Working in groups, the pupils create a photostory presentation on how to create origami flowers. They will use this presentation to teach origami to junior classes.

I like working on Photostory and it's really a great software that can help in encouraging children in their story writings.

Hi Florian, we have been using Photostory with Year 3 and Year 4's (7 - 9 years olds) for a couple of years. It's such a fantastic publishing tool and so easy to use with lovely animations and music. Thanks for sharing.

Presentation tip #1: Be a great presenter with Prezi presentation software. This is a wonderful new way of presentation. Easy and quick. One can use this instead of powerpoint presentation. In my experience, students love to explore prezi.

I am really excited about this research done by Dr. Mitra. It goes to show that barriers to ICT access can be significantly minimized and all students can gain access. In this talk, Sugata Mitra will take us through the origins of schooling as we know it, to the dematerialisation of institutions as we know them. Thirteen years of experiments in children's education takes us through a series of startling results - children can self-organise their own learning, they can achieve educational objectives on their own, they can read by themselves.

I was recently introduced to this research and found it fascinating. I am going to try to use some of this research in my own classroom by giving children access to the technology and giving them some freedom to explore and answer questions for themselves. I am excited to see how it works out!

Professor Mitra came to Argentina as a speaker for the ESSARP Conference in 2013. Fortunately colleagues of mine had the fortune to assist and learn aboit this amazing person from which we can learn a lot! Trust for our students is the key! Not being afraid helps as well! Allowing kids to learn through tools they feel comfortable about is a great success!
