eSchoolNews

One of the digital resources in my Professional Learning Network (PLN) is eSchool News.It's a free newsletter for teachers about educational technology and has lots of articles that are very relevant to where we are at, here at Gippsland Grammar.Unfortunately I was unable to embed the newsletter on this post  but nevertheless, click on  eSchoolNews to access the June edition.In this edition I particularly liked the the tip Don't be overcome by"There's an App for that"syndrome. which was in the article about successful iPad programs. It suggests that rather than constantly searching for apps that address specific curriculum content,view iPads as creative tools that are part of the learning process.Use them to create mock interviews,podcasts,practice and record foreign language (yes,Jan is doing this already!),create screencasts and animations.If you would like to register for eSchool News  and customize your own news, use the QR code on the top left of the screen in the June edition or go to the eSchool News website.
