The Story so far… Working with DASP schools to:
Create the new DASP Website www.dasp.org.uk
Plus, • Newspaper Days • Video Conferencing • Easiteach
Where are we now? • Do all teachers have basic ICT skills? • Do all teachers use the internet in classes? • Are teachers confident using Interactive Whiteboards? • Are teachers confident using digital cameras, scanners etc.? • Are senior management encouraging ICT use? Are we becoming e-confident?
What about the pupils? • Are they e-confident? • Are they leaving us behind? • Do they find computers old hat? Will they drive us to the future, whether we like it or not?
E-mail? • Video Conferencing? • Word Processing? • Digital Photography? Why not do it all on this?
Where do we go next? • Internet Portal • Virtual Learning Environments • Managed Learning Environments • E-Learning Frameworks
The Internet Portal • A one stop shop for internet resources. • Only enter one password at log on. • Ability to upload student and teacher work. • Interface customisable.
