Tech Tools to Support Teaching Handwriting – and why it’s still important in this digital age « ICT for Teaching & Learning in Falkirk Primary Schools

Tech Tools to Support Teaching Handwriting – and why it’s still important in this digital age « ICT for Teaching & Learning in Falkirk Primary Schools | ICT for Australian Curriculum | Scoop.it

In this age of mobile devices, keyboards, touchpads, and voice-controlled devices, some teachers may wonder if handwriting is no longer the required skill as before. And others may be looking for resources to help them teach this skill and support their pupils in as effective a way as possible using the tools which are now available to schools. Either way, read on and help is at hand online.

20 Web 2.0 Sites that does not Require Student Email Accounts

20 Web 2.0 Sites that does not Require Student Email Accounts | ICT for Australian Curriculum | Scoop.it

As we look at Web 2.0 tools we must consider if we can use them with our students in the school. Many school have policies about social media websites, but one we often run into is the need for students to have email addresses. This list provides 20 Web 2.0 sites that do require a student email address to create an account. There is one additional piece of information that we also need to check and that it the policy of the site for students under the age of 13. I have not checked all these sites to see if students under 13 are allowed and the post does not mention this fact...so if you work with students under 13 make sure to check their policy. 

The list is wide-ranging from sources that are great for finding educational resouces to bookmarking/annoting websites to creating animated videos and more. Some may require a subscription for educators.

This is so interesting because i can use my student account and putting in  my email is always such a pain!

dustin parks's curator insight, March 9, 2015 12:03 PM

This is so cool because putting my email in all the time is such a pain and I get emails from them all the time.
