Penguins and the Web 2.0

-hard to read on the screen-hurts your eyes!!!!!!! -too long -I agree technology can be useful in our teaching, especially FACEBOOK -every student would most likely have facebook and check it more then thier email. -how about each subject creates a facebook page and add their students. They would check this ALOT more than thier email. They have it on their iphones, get notifications etc. -this would be a benificial way to communicate amongst students and teachers with thier students (reminders of tests, excursions etc)

-I think it is important to yes use technology but make sure that they still use thier personal face to face interaction to communicate and use technology just as an extra tool to help them.

-I personally don't like the idea of virtual worlds much, as I think it is more important for students to learn how to interact and develop skills for their REAL lives, rather than live through a virtual world.

-we also need to make sure that our facilities here can cater for our technological needs. e.g laptops in the gym area take forever to load and it is time wasting, therefore we are reluctant to use them as an educational tool.
