ICT in Primary Education - 54 views

  •  
    As a fan and enthusiastic user of IT in classes, I have just started a course: ICT in Primary Education: Transforming children's learning across the curriculum. It is a free course at www.coursera.org I will start recording some tools available online. Take a look at them and free your imagination to use them in your lessons.

    Just started an ICT course from Coursera. It has made me jump from one exciting resource link to another before I could even finish the first activity! Absolutely loving it! I look forward to testing some of the ideas with my 6 yr old who is quite excited about technology. And as a parent I feel good if that gadget time is put to good use.

    5th week already. A good experience so far. Comprehensive materials indeed.

    i use http://www.codecademy.com/ to learn myself ... and for the kids http://www.tynker.com/

    There is also scratch.mit.edu/ , fantastic for computer programming. Hopscotch and Tynker are iPad applications that you can use, they are free. I agree code.org is fantastic, the hour of code occurs in December.

    If you have used a sticky note you can relate to the concept of Padlet. It is a great tool for students to collaborate and share information. You can post all kinds of digital content on the wall to share ideas or brainstorm.

    This is a great tool to use. My kids really enjoy it. When we were doing the PYP Exhibition 25 out of the 27 children in my class chose to do their reflections on padlet, so much easier to mark than taking 27 books home.
  •  
    I have just mentored a group through their PYP exhibition, if I had known of Padlet then it would have been great. Thanks for the idea, excellent tool for collaboration.
  •  
    Yes I also love using 'Padlet'. It's so versatile and effective. We will be using this tool later on in our MOOC "ICT in Primary Education.
