(www.eTwinning.net) I was running workshops on using ‘Flashmeeting’ (http://flashmeeting.e2bn.net)  the webcam video conferencing tool, promoting its use for European school collaboration. This session also included a presentation on a collaborative on line magazine production tool (magazine factory) Thomas Maier from European Schoolsnet demontrated the use of Blogs, wikis and podcasting. Lots of interesting sessions over the weekend and time to meet and network with colleagues. It was great to meet colleagues with such exciting ideas for using ICT tools in the classroom to enhance teaching and learning. Particular reference to Joe Dale, whom it was great to meet up with him again. He’s an inspirational blogger and podcaster with lots of ideas for using ICT in MFL teaching. I can recommend his blog. http://http://joedale.typepad.com/integrating_ict_into_the_// Well worth a look.

Can we use these skills to inspire them to blog to the WWW ???  I’m in a special school for kids who find traditional methods of writing difficult and BORING !!!   What does Blogging OFFER ?  I will keep you informed !!!!   I am new to this so any sugesstions greatly appreciated!!!
