Our presentation from Learning@School Conference in Rotorua 24 February 2010. Elm Park School has been using e-Portfolios school-wide with Year 1-6 students for two years. The portal we use is KnowledgeNET but the content of this presentation is valid for others choices such as Ultranet, blogs, wikis etc. The focus of this presentation was on our journey from research, through to trial and implementation. There will the opportunity to view some student examples. The pitfalls we found along the way and some implications for infrastructure, NZ Curriculum and National Standards will also be discussed.

Most faculty don’t have time to learn costly, complex solutions for recording and distributing lectures. Grand Rapids Community College partnered with TechSmith to offer an easy and effective way to capture lectures accessible by students through Blackboard and RSS feeds. Learn how faculty can capture lectures and share them in multiple formats, such as Flash, iPod Video, or MP3. Participate in a live demo in which the software is used to record and send a mini-presentation to the server. Participants receive a free trial, online documentation, and an overview handout.

This is my slideshow for my ULearn11 breakout:
We have been using e-Portfolios with Year 1 to 6 students at Elm Park School since 2007 and shortly afterwards made the decision to use our e-Portfolios as our sole method of reporting to parents. During this presentation we will discuss our ongoing journey to implement e-Portfolios school-wide, our purpose behind the decision to start the journey, the successes and the challenges - warts and all! We’ll have a look at some e-Portfolios examples and share the professional development, resources, equipment and web 2.0 tools that we have found most useful to help us along the way.
We use KnowledgeNET’s Learning Journals at Elm Park School to create our e-Portfolios but this workshop will also be of interest to those using other applications.
My workshop presentation for the e-Wrapper Cluster Mini Conference 29 July 2011 at Everglade School. 'Using e-Portfolios to promote student-centred learning'. Unfortunately I had to delete the slides with student examples before uploading due to privacy.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Acetabularia Information For Class 9 .docxvaibhavrinwa19

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Infrastructure - 2007 computer suite turned into classroom, computers and laptops into classrooms. 2008 - DP in every room, camera in every room. Built up numbers of computers per room from 4 to 6-8. Aiming for 8-10 over several years. Still need to get headphones! No longer purchase desktops for classrooms as laptops provide more versatility.
Knet chosen as the portal to use as we already had it in the school although under-utilised
