Just opend Vienna for the first time in a few days, I’ve been slipping back to reading blogs in my browser. Noticed some activity on the scotedublogs a good few more blogs in Argyll & Bute. Lots more reading. As well as a blog Andrew M. Brown’s site has a ton of ICT advice:
The Collected Ramblings of an Education Support Officer (ICT).
Seems a great idea especially with such a large area to cover. Of course even if you are not in Argyll and Bute there is a ton of stuff to borrow.
I hope we can use Cinnamon Crunch Cereal! in school. I found it via Remote Access in a post podcasting breakthrough which has more interesting classroom/podcasting links. It describes using Cinnamon Crunch Cereal! to get round a lack of macs and GarageBand and let children mix podcast backgrounds. Having the same problem and no musical knowledge it looks like something I could point some children at, and they might come up with something for the podcast.
The Aggregated Primaries in UK has been updated.
found out via The Blogface Neil Jones’ site which aim to cross-reference and collaborate on developing with weblogging and responsible use of ICT with young children.
Tim Lauer has created a bubbleshare piece of BubbleShare: Lewis Art Work
to show off BubbleShare‘s new zoom feature.
Bubbleshare has a nice export from iPhoto plug-in, so I made up a little slide show with some images of art work from around the school so I can play a bit with the new zoom feature…
I am jealous of his ability to use both iPhoto and BubbleShare in school, but I have another idea for my flash image thingy.
Tim’s blog saves hours of browsing as he picks some of the most exciting stuff for school web sites all the time.
I got the 
tool from his blog last week and added it to our front page and the blogs, a fascinating free tool.
I’ve made a slightly improved version of the image scroll display, this one loads a long wall display, grab to scroll and a slider to scale. I will be trying to improve this over the spring/easter holidays, when i can spend a whole day playing with it. Plans so far, some sort of note facility perhaps linked to areas and a thumbnail view, any other ideas welcome.
