» "Since his involvement I have found him more willing and enthusiastic with regards to completing his school work. I consider it a benefit in several ways that he can come home and log on to complete his homework (and school work). He often completes his assignments and gets great pleasure in navigating me around his blog and demonstrating what he has achieved. His motivation levels for school have increased noticeably and he is definitely happy working with his net book each day."

She is keen to learn and Is always on the computer – whether it be doing work or talking to friends, which still gives her computer knowledge. She communicates with her Teacher at night and in the weekends (poor Mr M) but all credit goes to him, as he responds and keeps them involved. Even as a two finger typist, she is very quick – and is using programs I have never heard of."
