Week 7-Blog Round Up

Considering using Social Media in your classroom?

Interested in developing Twitter within your school?


If so, then this Blog Post from the iLearn Technology Blog offers some great ideas for introducing Twitter using classroom accounts across a school and also shares resources that could be used for establishing guidelines for use.

Morley is a musician who The innovative educator blog says "uses her craft as a tool to inspire change", the video below features students of our future who confidently declare "We will change everything!"

A question to consider, while you watch:
