Joe Shaw just pointed be to a very nice looking idea St. Mary?s Bannockburn Blog. It is a homework blog with the work posted in comments which are both approved until the due date, some nice varied examples of fun homework tasks including finding the meaning of Scottish words Scottish Meanings – P7H and looking at art work: Homework – Andy Warhol.

Food for thought, I am very tempted to try this. I think joe said that they get over the digital divide by allowing time in school to do the tasks if pupils want to (before school, lunchtime, I am not sure).
