Peeking inside the box..

Resource Types.. Computing platforms / PC’s.

Resource Types.. Computing platforms / PC’s. Digital video and audio capture devices.

Resource Types.. Computing platforms / PC’s. Digital video and audio capture devices. Handheld Devices and consoles.

Resource Types.. Assistive Tools and applications.

Question.. So…..based upon your own experiences.. What is the one “must have” piece of portable technology that can be used to support teaching and learning? Why? What makes it so special?

Beware.. It is very easy to become wrapped up in the technical features of the resources within the box. Try to hang on to the key questions..

‘So What..?’ Just how can I use this to improve the quality of my own teaching and learning?

‘What would this mean to me, my learners, the organisation and my current practices?’ Discuss!!

Thank you
