http://paulaict.blogspot.com/2011_08_01_archive.html
Posted by Paula Stewart. Monday, August 15, 2011. A great two day conference that provoked alot of thinking, questioning and forward planning of how I want to use these in my class. I really liked how all speakers where linked by the messages that they were sending out. James Nottingham was one speaker that really caught my attention with his examples and ideas.

All in a good way though :-) Off a link from Professor Steve Wheeler tweets, I went into an amazing site that had an abundance of Web 2.0 Tools. Http:/ www.go2web20.net/. The brilliant thing about your learning is that you share it with the children. They see you as a co-learner alongside them. Powerful! March 29, 2011 at 11:58 PM. View my complete profile.

I like to think I picked my path but did my path pick me? I feel an inexplicable draw towards learning as much as I can about Dyslexia and other learning difficulties. Building Und...

From where I sit: Learning not work
http://ruthfthomas.blogspot.com/2016/09/learning-not-work.html
From where I sit. NZ Practising Teacher Criteria. Friday, September 2, 2016. This year I have been making a conscious effort to refer to tasks as learning rather than work. It has taken all year to break the habit (and I still occasionally catch myself mentioning 'work') but it has had a powerful effect in the classroom. Have you finished this learning? Is that the best choice for your learning? What do you need to work on learning next? And most importantly. What do YOU want to learn next?
