You know how things happen in schools and I think what you say (I couldnt agree more) is quite a big shift in thinking for some. It is essential but still creates the fear in the tried and tested why should I change crew!<br />Look forward to hearing about more projects<br />SimonAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136763600493807558.post-53782264206633359192013-01-31T07:33:44.350-08:002013-01-31T07:33:44.350-08:00Hi Simon,
Thanks for the comment. To justify the ...Hi Simon,<br /><br />Thanks for the comment. To justify the use of mobile technology I would argue that children need now, more than ever, to be skilled in the use of digital technology - these are the skills they will need for the future. The children love using these devices and therefore they have more of a passion for learning because the lessons are fun and engaging. The use of the devices can allows the children to be more be creative, increase the opportunities for speaking and listening, allow them to become more of a critical thinker, learn how to solve problems for themselves, develop skills to become an independent learner, teach them how to become responsible citizens in the digital world and allow them the ability to be able to drive their own learning.<br /><br />As educators in the 21st century learners surely we a right to teach children 21st century skill and we have to make decision which tools (technology or otherwise) will prepare our children for the future.<br /><br />Keep up the good fight, you have many people on your side. I would recommend twitter - it's a great place for CPD.<br /><br />Best Wishes,<br /><br />Mr AndrewsAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13776876970186499540noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136763600493807558.post-80453782353471590822013-01-31T03:15:37.468-08:002013-01-31T03:15:37.468-08:00Thanks for the suggestions.

Will investigate your ideas.<br /> <br />Have you had any problems justifying this use. I can clearly see the benefit and have been promoting the skills and capabilities but I have had a lot of problems with a lack of vision from teachers who are questioning where it fits with their learning intentions. At present this is prooving to be quite a stumbling block that no matter how I have approached is just not getting through.<br />Simon<br />Anyway will keep fighting the good fight.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6136763600493807558.post-62017450514541413062013-01-26T12:47:58.371-08:002013-01-26T12:47:58.371-08:00Thanks Conchifm.

I think it's a great way to stimulate children's learning and the learning wall is visually stunning and shows off the kids' creativity.
