10. Teaching software / apps / web 2.0 tools explicitly. Play with them, learn them, teach them. If you dont have time for that, look on the web forresources to help you. A good place to start is theDEECD Digital Learning Showcase as this does linkpedagogy to software tutorials and other resources. Search the web for tutorials.You Tube is useful.Sunday, 5 May 13

11. Teaching software / apps / web 2.0 tools explicitly. Dont teach the skill students need out of context,there is little purpose in doing it this way! Instead teach them, when the students need them,i.e. when they are completing authentic tasks! Investigate making screencasts.Sunday, 5 May 13
