I'm already a member of twitter and Facebook which is good for keeping in touch with my daughter who is currently overseas. I looked at Second life and I believed that it had better applications for Secondary Schools as opposed to Primary Schools, well that is until I saw the You tube of Thomas Suarez. This made me question a couple of things such as
How much do we stifle our students in their day to day time in our classes?
If the technology in the class was always working and there was a reasonable ratio of students to technology how much content could we get through in a day?
So with the development of the national syllabus have "they" or will "they" factor in more use of I.T and will the general big questions allow for exploration of the concept rather than a focus on learning facts?
Once again through this module there was a lot to read and watch and that was no doubt the tip of the iceberg.
How do we get a working computer and reasonably priced internet access into the homes of every school student?
