  9. BloggingwithKS@CSPS Cross-curriculum work is blogged - Phonemes, Fundamental Movement Skills, Maths Pattern Making, Jellybeans Music Program “Quality of student writing is really improving.” - both on-line and on paper

  10. BloggingwithKS@CSPS Barbara says she learns something new for each lab session - Photoshop Elements, Video, Photostory, Blog Plug-ins - “Self-learning is important – if you don’t know how, find out.” The DET Blog Trial is continuing at the school in KS - but is also now being extended into other classes

  11. BloggingwithKS@CSPS • KS Online Blog: • http://tinyurl.com/KSOnline • Highlights: • Book Week Parade • Independent blogging Canterbury South just got their Connected Classroom - KS really wanted to see what it was about, so an impromptu videoconference was arranged with Bambos the next day just to say hello. Barbara’s mission now is to master the IWB. Well done Barbara!

  12. Some Sydney Region K-6 Teachershavechanged… • Craig.Snudden@Engadine • Year 5 teacher • Provingdailyyoudon’tneed the latestgear • Class Blog, Wiki, TeacherTubeProducer, SchoolWebsite Master, Stop-Motion Animator, SmartboardOperator, Twitterer, Lifelong-Learner

  13. 5S@EngadinePS The Smartboard is the ONLY board in the classroom - It’s on all day and all students use it too A Shared mini computer lab is at the back of the room - 8 Windows PCs and 4 eMacs with a Windows Server - The neighbouring 5/6 class rarely uses the lab but sees 5S in there every day, with students usually working independently

  14. TeacherTubeis a major repository for much of the work that 5S does with multiple videos published each week. The class has produced over 20 separate videos covering multiple KLAs, with over 4,000 views to date. From debating to cooking to maths to stop-motion animation and science experiments. Video camera, web-cam and now with Pocket video cam. They use MovieMaker, iMovie, ICanAnimate – Windows and Mac http://tinyurl.com/5Svideos

  15. 5S@EngadinePS This is a closed wiki, only accessible via invitation. Mr Snudden’s Wiki – a new direction for the class - A place to catalogue links to resources used in class - Those resources are not lost when a topic has been completed - Some Wiki pages have student ownership – eg. Sports Report Page, plus individual student pages - News, pics, videos and discussions – all in one place.

  16. 5S@EngadinePS http://snudden.edublogs.org 5S EPS Blog – another new direction for the class - The 5S Blog has only just started - The school pays $5 per month to allow managed class access - It will be a publicly-visible repository for their classwork, providing a potential worldwide audience

  17. 5S@EngadinePS http://tinyurl.com/EPSwebsite The Engadine PS Website – gateway to the community - While Craig started the website using the new DET Service, he has now managed to get all staff at the school to contribute - News, photos, newsletters and permission notes - Easy to update from home and can even embed class videos

  18. 5S@EngadinePS Collaborative Learning in Class, Professional Learning Network for Craig - Craig is a self-learner, but he relies on his PLN to keep him up to date with everything ed-tech. An active Twitterer, a member of the Sydney Region ICTForum and regular ICTDayattendee.- Now they create DVDs, on-line surveys and shared web links- Just three short years ago, Craig was doing none of this in class.
