This is a great website that I found, it is primarily set up for Pre-Service Teachers to help them build their ICTE (Information, Communication and Technology in Education) capabilities. It even has little packages that you can log into the site with your Scootle account and look at practical hints and tips on integrating ICTs into your lessons in English, History, Maths and Science. Easy to use and quite informative. Has a lot of information about TPACK too :) the packages come in three areas, early childhood, upper primary/lower secondary and years 9/10. There is even reflective video clips from Pre-Service Teachers that have used these packages.

One site that enables you to shorten your url for your assignments and Twitter etc.

I found this while looking for statistics on children using computers. Would love your thoughts on what you think? I couldn't believe the statistics. Had to really think about it, and I am a tad worried with the results! check out my blog for the results on how children use the internet.

Queensland Government framework for ICT in classrooms

Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge , known for short as TPACK, is a framework used to understand and describe the kinds of knowledge needed by a Teacher for effective pedagogical practice in a technologically enhanced learning environment.
