ICT

Dead treeMar 2005 – July 2005
Homewood School and Sixth Form Centre, Tenterden Teacher of ICT

This provided a valuable and refreshing experience of classroom teaching in a subject area I started twenty-five years ago as computer technology was first entering schools. It always was about developing children’s skills, primarily for communication, and not the gadgetry.

The technology has changed since I worked on geography simulations (see Computers in the Curriculum) and it continues to be developed in more interesting ways. What hasn’t changed is the need for meaningful context in teaching and learning activities.
