                                      Integrating new technologies to empower learning and transform leadership


Sunday, 3 October 2010
In this workshop I intend to...


                show how ICT could be embedded into a junior programme

                discuss the purpose of blogging and digital learning

                outline the progress I have made as a blogger with my junior
                class

                list tools and resources that I use regularly that you may like to
                explore in your own time

The Parrot of Purpose Metaphor

                Quoted by Sherry Crisp,
                National Facilitator ICT PD
                in 2008 at first module of
                Twin Coast Cluster

                Metaphor used by Andy
                Hargreaves (1997), is found
                in the ‘Parrot of Purpose’
                sitting on our shoulders
                questioning our actions.
                (more information on Andy Hargreaves here)

If you employ digital learning processes, they must
                 advance student learning. Otherwise, why bother?
                 (Tony Ryan, Digital Pedagogies, Learning@School, Feb 09)

IT is not ‘added’ to learning. It must be deeply
                embedded in learning.

              (Tony Ryan, Digital Pedagogies, Learning@School, Feb 09)

                Need permission from parents to show
                photos of children - school policy and
