20. Dear Blog
I’m utterly shocked!!! Still fuming with
anger
My master has always been strict with
me and since I was a kitten, I was never
allowed to climb on the furniture or the
TV set. I was always sent on the balcony
whenever I wanted to go to the loo and I
was constantly told off if I scratched the
carpet or hi-fi stereo with my paws. And
I swear I did my very best to follow the
rules.
But yesterday, my master opened the
cage door and the two budgies came
out, flying all over the living room. They
scratched the furniture, flew on the TV
set and the CD player. As if this was not
enough, there were droppings all over
the carpet and picture frames while the
master’s newspaper was chewed to
pieces by their beaks.
If I had done that, my master would have kicked
me out. Instead of doing the same with the two
birds, he burst into laughter and started taking
photos.
I feel like eating them tonight!!! What should I
do? I wish somebody could tell me what to
do….
Best
Desperate pussycat

21. Tips and Hints
• Don’t inundate students with tools
and apps
• Don’t hesitate to ask help from your
students
• Don’t be afraid to admit that you
don’t know sth technical
• Don’t panic if technology doesn’t work
• Use only 2-3 a year if you work with
younger students
• Give learners time to explore the
potential of the apps and tools
• Appoint teacher assistants (a different
one every day)
• Have a plan B ready – just in case ;)
22. At the end of the day what counts is
NOT how many apps you have used in
class but
how many learning goals have been
achieved
